    Open AccessDiana Blom, Judith M Brown et al.ARTICLEInternational Journal of Music…2026

    For professional musicians, all aspects of music play an integrated role in music-making. However, for first year music students, who usually begin their studies identifying as performers, some may question the value of learning these other areas of music. This study investigates the responses of 80 first year undergraduate music students to questions about aspects of the music study they were about to begin, and their identity as a musician. The…

  • Recurrent grief in mothering a child with an intellectual disability to adulthood

    Open AccessJudith M BrownARTICLEChild & Family Social Work2013References: 8

    Much of the literature on mothering a child with a disability focuses on grief in the context of diagnosis, with a paucity of longitudinal studies focusing on ongoing grief as the child moves through the life stages. This qualitative study explores the existence of recurrent grief within the lived experience of six women, in mothering their children with intellectual disability through to young adulthood. Informed by the differing theories of gri…

  • God’s Empire

    Open AccessJudith M BrownARTICLEThe English Historical Review2012

    The history of Christian missions to people of other faiths, in the context of European imperialism, has, in recent decades, achieved a significant place in the broader field of imperial history and examination of varieties of globalisation. The magnitude of the missionary enterprise, the role of women as fundraisers and missionaries, the key roles of local auxiliaries (whether converts or not), and the influence of missionary ideals and institut…

  • Life Histories” and the History of Modern South Asia

    Judith M BrownARTICLEThe American Historical Review2009

    PEOPLE OFTEN REFER TO MY ACCOUNTS of the lives of two of modern India's "founding fathers," M. K. Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru, as "biographies." 1 However, I do not see myself as a biographer, or these works as biographies, in the accepted sense of tracking and interpreting a life from the cradle to the grave, and, more problematically, of taking the individual as the only intellectual and analytical center of the argument.Readers who look for th…

  • Attention web designers

    Gitte Lindgaard, Gary Fernandes et al.ARTICLEBehaviour and Information…2006

    Three studies were conducted to ascertain how quickly people form an opinion about web page visual appeal. In the first study, participants twice rated the visual appeal of web homepages presented for 500 ms each. The second study replicated the first, but participants also rated each web page on seven specific design dimensions. Visual appeal was found to be closely related to most of these. Study 3 again replicated the 500 ms condition as well …

  • Global South Asians

    Open AccessJudith M BrownBOOKGlobal South Asians2006

    By the end of the twentieth century some nine million people of South Asian descent had left India, Bangladesh or Pakistan and settled in different parts of the world, forming a diverse and significant modern diaspora. In the early nineteenth century, many left reluctantly to seek economic opportunities which were lacking at home. This is the story of their often painful experiences in the diaspora, how they constructed new social communities ove…

  • A Certain Laughter

    Open AccessJudith M BrownARTICLEModernist Cultures2006Cited by: 1

    Judith Brown (Indiana University - Bloomington) reads Sherwood Anderson's 1925 novel “Dark Laughter” in the context of the explosion of theoretical treatments of laughter that emerge in the early 1920s in the traumatic wake of the Great War. Recuperating the disruptive potential of modernist laughter, Brown reads the novel through the scene of redemptive collective laughter that concludes Preston Sturges' film “Sullivan's Travels” (1941). Whereas…

  • Making a new home in the diaspora

    Judith M Brown, Judith Brown et al.ARTICLEContemporary South Asia2006Cited by: 1

    This special issue focuses on the diverse experiences of the South Asian Diaspora in Britain as its members make new homes and identities outside the subcontinent. It has two main intentions. First, it attempts to show how it is possible to bring together much of the small-scale case-study literature on the diaspora by concentrating on significant and continuing themes in the diaspora experience. All members of diasporas have core tasks to perfor…

  • Nehru

    Lucian W Pye, Judith M Brown et al.ARTICLEForeign Affairs2004Cited by: 21

    The first prime minister of India after independence from British rule, Jawaharlal Nehru (1889-1964) was a major architect of India as a nation state. His dedication to politics led to imprisonment under British rule, a deeply disturbed family life, and eventually to nearly two decades in power during which he ceaselessly pursued his vision of a transformed and democratic India. This biography depicts the phases of Nehru's life and shows how each…

    Surendra Bhana, Judith M Brown et al.ARTICLEThe International Journal of…1998

    On Pietermaritzburg station in 1893, a young Indian lawyer, newly arrived in South Africa, was ejected from a train to Pretoria for insisting on his right to travel first class. It was to the cold night hours spent in the waiting-room that Gandhi himself traced the genesis of his great resolve - to fight injustice by non-violent means. Crucial as this episode was, it was but one of the manifold influences which shaped the Gandhi-to-be during his …

  • An Autobiography

    Donald Zagoria, Donald S Zagoria et al.REVIEWForeign Affairs1997

    Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was born in Western India in 1869. He was educated in London and later travelled to South Africa, where he experienced racism and took up the rights of Indians, instituting his first campaign of passive resistance. In 1915 he returned to British-controlled India, bringing to a country in the throes of independence his commitment to non-violent change, and his belief always in the power of truth. Under Gandhi's lead, mil…
