This book is an exploration of the historical sources across India's composite culture that have shaped the female self. Beginning with the Upanisads, it works with several foundational texts such as the epics and their retellings, Manusmriti, Nātyaśastra and the literature of the Bhakti Movement in order to trace the histories of feminist questionings.
