Autobiography

7 Entries found

Here we have autobiographies of a great number of figures from the institution. The authors of these books are mostly eminent public figures of modern India. In these works, while narrating their lives, they write about the time they spent in the college, as students, or in some cases, as both students and teachers. These books are from different periods in the history of the institution, ranging from the early-nineteenth century to the mid/late-twentieth century. Their reminiscences offer rich accounts of academic practices and major events in the institution. There are both English and Bengali books in this collection.
