We are now inhabiting an academic world filled with the prefix post post structuralism post modernism post colonialism post feminism. More than debating the various connotations of the prefix scholars are now increasingly engaged in identifying the space offered by it in order to interrogate negotiate and transform the movements defined by it. This book Re defining Feminism is one such attempt aimed at examining the process that paves way for re definition of the different types of feminisms in the Indian context. The critical anthology is an outcome of the peer reviewed and revised papers presented at a national conference and a few invited contributions. While literature is the underlying matrix for the anthology it covers diverse fields like fine arts creative writings social work activism media studies and many more. The editors of the anthology have identified four stages to the process of re definition namely re design re think re view and re mark. All the contributions have been arranged within the four stages which appear as the four sections of the book. Altogether the book provides a rich texturing of the subtle nuances of feminisms and interweave by counterpointing articles across the different sub sections and finally across disciplines. 278 pp. Artikel-Nr. 69720
