My doctoral dissertation is an intellectual biography of a late-19th century Parsi reformer, journalist, poet, anthropologist and travel-writer named Behram Malabari. It examines the beginnings of what was to become the 'women's movement' in India. In this, it speaks to my current teaching and research, which is largely in the area of Culture Studies, with a special focus on gender. A practicing musician, as part of my doctoral training, I've also worked in the area of Ethnomusicology, and the article I've proposed to the Journal here is part of a wider monograph I'm currently working on which examines the role of music in the emplacement of identity in exile groups, with a special focus on the Tibetan refugee community living and working in India today.
