It accounts for indigenous experiences of the lunatic asylum in the Bombay Presidency (1793-1921). The book argues that the colonial lunatic asylum failed to assimilate into Indian society and therefore remained a failed colonial-medical enterprise. It begins by assessing the implications of lunatic asylums on indigenous knowledge and healing traditions. It then examines the lunatic asylum as a 'middle-ground', and the European superintendents' 'common-sense' treatment of Indian insanity. Furthermore, it analyses the soundscapes of Bombay?s asylums, and the extent to which public perceptions influenced their use. Lunatic asylums left a legacy of historical trauma for the indigenous community because of their coercive and custodial character. This book aims to disrupt that legacy of trauma and to enable new narratives in mental health treatment in India. 1800-1999 fast Geschichte 1793-1921 gnd Psychiatrie (DE-588)4047667-4 gnd Kolonialismus (DE-588)4073624-6 gnd Hospitals, Psychiatric history (DNLM)D006778Q000266 Psychiatric hospitals fast Psychiatric hospitals India Bombay History 19th century Psychiatric hospitals India Bombay History 20th century Psychiatric hospitals India Mumbai History 19th century Psychiatric hospitals India Mumbai History 20th century Irrenanstalt (DE-588)4123449-2 gnd India (DNLM)D007194 India Mumbai fast Mumbai (DE-588)10013721-0 gnd History fast u XB 4100 idslu LR u XB 5600 idslu LR BK020000 XK020000 XK020000 Metadata rights reserved vaud Stoppsignal FRED nebis DS NL201901 idslu L1 s1me rnv s2ht rnv 011 IDS LU VAUD iuhm iuhm HMA 26537 505E 810820001 IDSLU LUUHL LUUHL UHFRE XB 4100 2018 IDSBB B583 B583 MAG IMG CFA 2019 536 IMG WM 27 JI4 P659 NELB5831912 VAUD 100 1- Pinto Sarah Ann aut VAUD 490 0- Mental Health in Historical Perspective IDSBB 100 1- Pinto Sarah Ann (DE-588)1195557930 Verfasser aut IDSBB 490 0- Mental health in historical perspective IDSLU 100 1- Pinto Sarah Ann Verfasser aut IDSLU 490 0- Mental health in historical perspective IDSLU ILU50 ILU01 LUZHB https://www.ub.unibas.ch/tox/IDSLUZ/001336587/PDF pdf VIEW Inhaltsverzeichnis
