Copied Lunatic Asylums in Colonial Bombay
Lunatic Asylums in Colonial Bombay
This book traces the historical roots of the problems in Indias mental health care system. 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 Bombays 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.
