Résumé
Anglo-Bengali Christians in Bangladesh: Identity, History and Community Context is a groundbreaking historical and cultural study of one of Bangladesh's least documented minority communities. Emerging at the crossroads of British colonialism and Bengali society, Anglo-Bengali Christians developed a distinctive identity shaped by faith, language, urban modernity, and postcolonial transformation. Drawing on archival research, oral histories, and interdisciplinary cultural analysis, Prof.
Dr. Milton Biswas reconstructs the layered evolution of this community-from its colonial genesis to the upheavals of Partition and the Liberation War, and into the challenges of contemporary Bangladesh. The book explores how hybridity, migration, gendered space, and institutional church structures shaped patterns of belonging and exclusion. Key themes include:. The formation of Anglo-Bengali Christian identity under colonial rule.
Urban settlement and community networks in Dhaka and Chattogram. Partition trauma and post-1971 transformation. Demographic decline and cultural erosion. Negotiations between memory, faith, and national belonging. Comparative perspectives with Anglo-Indian and South Asian Christian minoritiesMoving beyond nostalgia, this study offers a rigorous postcolonial dialogue on minority survival, cultural continuity, and the politics of memory in South Asia.
An essential resource for scholars and readers of South Asian history, postcolonial studies, minority identity, religious history, and cultural anthropology.
