Indigenous Roots of Feminism: Culture, Subjectivity and Agency
Jasbir Jain
An exploration of the historical sources across India's composite culture that have shaped the female self. Beginning with the "Upanishads", it deals with several foundational texts such as the epics and their retellings, "Manusmriti", "Natya Sastra" and the literature of the Bhakti Movement to trace the histories of feminist questionings.
