Feminist Discourses in Indian Context

This volume makes significant and fresh contributions to the field of Indian feminist thought which is assuming increasing importance and relevance in the realm of literary studies and other allied disciplines. It is not very often that a book tries to break disciplinary boundaries with courage and acumen. The current anthology is an endeavour by Indian and western academics to highlight the relevance of linking research and social transformation. Divided into four inter-related parts, Feminist Discourses in Indian Context: Assertion, Identity and Agency presents twenty-one articles --- written by distinguished scholars --- with new aspects on feminism starting from pre-modern India and coming up to post-modern dystopian India.
