An autobiography is a book written by oneself on one's own life.

  • Amar Jiban is an autobiography of Rashsundari Devi. It was published in 1876, which shows the status of women in the Nineteenth Century.
  • Rokeya Sakhawat Hossain was a Muslim feminist and social reformer.
  • Manimekalai was composed by Sattanar around 1400 years ago. This describes the story of the daughter of Kovalan and Madhavi.
  • Stri-Purush was a pamphlet/book written by feminist activist Tarabai Shinde.

Hence, we conclude that to discuss on women's education in colonial India, students could refer to Rashsundari Devi's Amar Jiban.
