How did the introduction of printed books and newspapers impact the social reform movement in the 19th century?
The introduction of printed books and newspapers in the 19th century had a significant impact on the social reform movement. These new forms of communication made it possible to debate and discuss social, political, economic, and religious issues more broadly. Printed material was cheaper and more accessible than manuscripts, allowing ordinary people to read, write, and express their ideas in their own languages. This dissemination of ideas helped to link discussions to movements for social change and facilitated debates initiated by Indian reformers, contributing to a new character in debates and discussions on social customs and practices.
What role did Raja Rammohun Roy play in the movement against the practice of Sati, and how did he contribute to its abolition in 1829?
