Re-examines feminist theory by looking at South Asian aesthetic
conventions drawn from iconography, philosophy, Indo-Islamic mystic
folk traditions and poetics. It discusses alternate fluid
representations of gender and intersectional identities and
interrelationships in some dominant as well as subaltern Indic
aesthetic traditions. Interlinks pre-historic, classical, medieval,
pre-modern and contemporary aesthetic and literary traditions of
South Asia through a gendered perspective. Bridges a major gap in
feminist theory and examines the political dimension of feminist
theory in India as well as its implications for trans-continental
feminist aesthetics across South Asia and the west. An
interdisciplinary work, this book will be useful for departments of
feminist theory, women's studies, gender studies, art and
aesthetics, philosophy, literature, cultural studies, queer
studies, sexuality studies, political studies, sociology and South
Asian studies.
