| Description | In this publication, anthropologists, historians, linguists, and gender studies scholars examine islam, sexuality, gender, and marriage on the Swahili coast and elsewhere in the Indian Ocean. The book examines diverse sites of empowerment, contradiction, and resistance affecting cultural norms, islam and ideas of islamic authenticity, gender expectations, ideologies of modernity, and British education. The book pays attention to both masculinity and femininity, examinates the transnational space of the Swahili coast, and includes research on non-Swahili groups on the East African coast.
