The Beautiful Tree: Indigenous Education in 19th Century India | Probal Roy Chowdhury

Revisiting the Beautiful Tree: Indigenous Education in Madras Presidency and its transformation under the British in the 19th Century One of the landmarks in the historiography of Indian education has been the publication of the book “The Beautiful Tree” by Dharampal in 1983. It brings to light the full details of the survey of indigenous education in the Madras Presidency during 1822-25. This talk discusses the extent of indigenous education in Madras Presidency and its transformation under the British rule in the 19th century. About his work, Dr Roy Chowdhury says, “In my doctoral programme on the history of indigenous education in Madras Presidency and its transformation under the British rule in the nineteenth century, I have compiled — perhaps for the first time — authentic and substantial evidence for the emergence of educational deprivation among many of the 'backward communities' in India as being concomitant with the establishment and growth of the colonial education system under the British rule. My doctoral work has been in continuation of the perspective presented by the late Gandhian thinker and historian Dharampal (1922-2006) in his seminal work, The Beautiful Tree.” About the Speaker: Dr Probal Roy Chowdhury is a Kolkata based independent researcher and consultant. Dr Roy Chowdhury has had an education steeped in the Indian culture. He studied in Vivekananda Mission School, Kolkata, followed by Ramakrishna Mission Vivekananda College, Chennai, and he worked in Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, Amma’s university in Kerala. His PhD thesis was based on the seminal work done by Gandhian thinker and historian Dharampal (1922-2006). Dharampal wrote a seminal book called “The Beautiful Tree” which documented the crucial fact that even in 1825, one-third of the boys of school-going age were studying in the indigenous school system and almost seventy per cent of these students were from what we call the ‘backward classes’. It was only under the colonial education system under the British rule, that educational deprivation started emerging among these communities. Dr Roy Chowdhury is currently engaged in scholarly explorations on the history of indigenous education in the Bengal presidency region, and on cultural and ritual traditions of Bengal, especially the Durga festival.
