The Awakening of Indian Women is a classic work of anti-imperial feminist theory. Kamaladevi Chattophadyay offers a clear vision of India liberated from the yoke of British colonial rule. Awakening presents a dynamic portrait of the Indian feminist movement in the early 20th century, written by a vibrant cast of activists at the centre of anti-colonial and feminist agitations.
Sati--the burning of a widow on her husband's funeral pyre--has for centuries been one of the few ways in which women of India could achieve renown, respect, and even deification. This eye-opening work exposes what this still persistent ritual (officially outlawed in 1829) reveals about this society and about the women who choose or are forced to become sati. 8-page insert.
