It explores the lineament of evil and the corresponding closure of chastisement or domesticity that appear as necessary conditions for the representation of subversive female desire. The term 'bad' is used heuristically, and not as a moral or essential category, to examine some of the iconic disruptive women of Hindi cinema and to uncover the nexus between patriarchy and other hierarchies, such as class, caste and religion in these representations. The twenty-one essays examine the politics of female desire/s from the 1930s to the present day - both through in-depth analyses of single films and by tracing the typologies in multiple films. The essays are divided into five sections indicating the various gendered desires and rebellions that patriarchal society seeks to police, silence and domesticate."-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 650 0 $a Women in motion pictures. 650 0 $a Motion pictures and women $z India. 650 0 $a Motion pictures, Hindi $z India. 650 7 $a Motion pictures and women. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01027425 650 7 $a Motion pictures, Hindi. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01741197 650 7 $a Women in motion pictures. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01177931 651 7 $a India. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210276 700 1 $a Sengupta, Saswati, $e editor. 700 1 $a Roy, Shampa, $e editor. 700 1 $a Purkayastha, Sharmila, $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317032304.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=926064D2403511EB87AA299C42ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
