The Many Lives of a Rajput Queen
Author: Ramya Sreenivasan
Publisher: University of Washington Press
ISBN: 0295997850
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 287
Book Description
Winner of the 2009 Ananda Kentish Coomaraswamy Book Prize, sponsored by the Association for Asian Studies The medieval Rajput queen Padmini - believed to have been pursued by Alauddin Khalji, the Sultan of Delhi - has been the focus of numerous South Asian narratives, ranging from a Sufi mystical romance in the sixteenth century to nationalist histories in the late nineteenth century. The Many Lives of a Rajput Queen explores how early modern regional elites, caste groups, and mystical and monastic communities shaped their distinctive versions of the past through the repeated refashioning of the legend of Padmini. Ramya Sreenivasan investigates these legends and traces their subsequent appropriation by colonial administrators and nationalist intellectuals, for varying different political ends. Using Padmini as a means of illustrating the power of gender norms in constructing heroic memory, she shows how such narratives about virtuous women changed as they circulated across particular communities in South Asia between the sixteenth and early twentieth centuries. This book will interest historians of memory, gender, community, culture, and historywriting in South Asia. Illustrating how enduring legends emerged out of particular precolonial repositories of "tradition," the book also addresses the nature of colonial transitions and precolonial historical consciousness.

Book Description
They say when you don’t find your favorite book write it, as a woman raised in this Indian society I have lived with myths on what to do, when to do and how to do ALWAYS told by people around, I decided to read books and everything is written by some super successful women who never ever lived my normal life, when I read some rebel books it suggested me to hate men and do things which is not me, to me trying to be a man is waste of a woman. I wrote this book for my younger self, for a lower middle class family grew up watching movies, heroes and ad films soaked with myths. You don’t have to become a fighter to live a great life, you just need to know what is a myth and what is reality, that is enough to move from the survival mode to the living and concequering mode, are you ready sister?
