Abstract

UIDB/04666/2020 UIDP/04666/2020 ; An intellectual biography of a newspaper aims a methodology that should disclose an editorial line, its agents and the means by which they intended to reach the targeted audiences and who they were. In this way, the analysis of Pracasha allows us to discover the complexity of colonial relations in the cultural and political microcosm of Goa and at the same time the configuration of a global context. It is this ability to reveal the globalization of doctrinal debates for democracy incorporating the freedom fight against colonialism, that make this study of Pracasha an important contribution to the cultural history of the democratic thought in Goa. ; publishersversion ; published
