Beskrivelse

The book critically analyses questions of gender and sexuality in the medieval religious texts of Bengal. It analyses the emergence of religious cults in patriarchal contexts, the humanisation of the goddess figure as a wife and mother who is subject to social and ethical codes, and demythologisation of folk epics.
