Indian women's writing across languages, texts, and contexts constitutes a unique narrative of the post-independence nation. This volume highlights the ways in which women writers negotiate the patriarchal biases embedded in the epistemological and institutional structures of the post-independence nation state. It discusses works of famous Indian authors like Amrita Pritam, Jyotirmoyee Devi, Mannu Bhandari, Mahasweta Devi, Mridula Garg, Nayantara Sahgal, Indira Goswami, Alka Saraogi to name a few, and facilitates a pan-Indian understanding of the concerns taken up by these women writers. In doing so, it shows how ideas travel across regions and contribute towards building a thematic critique of the oppressive structures that breed the unequal relations between margins and the centre. The volume will be of interest to scholars and researchers of gender studies, women's studies, South Asian literature, political sociology and political studies"-- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a Revision of author's thesis (doctoral)--Jamia Millia Islamia (India), 2018, titled Writing gender, writing nation : a critical study of select women's fiction in post-independence India. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Women as 'citizens' : gendered violence in partition narratives by women -- Feminist negotiation of autarchy : going beyond victimhood -- Negotiating structural inequalities : marriage, domesticity, divorce and widowhood in post-independence India -- Economic liberalisation, cultural ghettoisation and their impact on the gendered contexts -- Writings from the margins : dalit and Muslim women's narratives. 650 0 $a Indic fiction $x History and criticism. $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Indic fiction (English) $x History and criticism. $x History and criticism. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2009126938 650 0 $a Indic fiction $y 20th century $x History and criticism. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2009126935 650 0 $a Indic fiction $y 21st century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Indic fiction (English) $y 20th century $x History and criticism. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008104408 650 0 $a Indic fiction (English) $y 21st century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Women and literature $z India $x History $y 20th century. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008113602 650 0 $a Women and literature $z India $x History $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Women in literature. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85147587 650 7 $a Indic fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00970132 650 7 $a Indic fiction (English) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00970135 650 7 $a Indic fiction (English) $x Women authors. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00970138 650 7 $a Indic fiction $x Women authors. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00970134 650 7 $a Women and literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01177093 650 7 $a Women in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01177912 651 7 $a India. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210276 648 7 $a 1900-2099 $2 fast 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411635 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 $0 http://id.worldcat.org/fast/1411628 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214015714.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=EB1AC52A083E11EABF3FA51A97128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
