Mahadevi Varma is a household name in India even today, and her legacy in the world of Hindi poetry is securely established. Mahadevi published several critical essays on the status of women in society, on the relationship between literature and language, on Chhayavad poetry, and numerous other themes. This Reader contains some of Mahadevi Varma’s critical essays on questions of literature, language, politics, and feminism. In addition, selections from her poems and prose sketches are included to capture her nuanced voice as a leading woman writer and educationalist. Anita Anantharam has worked on feminist resistance to nationalism in the poetry of Mahadevi Varma, Kishwar Naheed, Fahmida Riaz, and Gagan Gill. She is currently conducting post-doctoral research on the literary culture of the women’s movement in India. Give your review [Top] |
