Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies 9th Lecture : Women in Hinduism

The roles of women in Hindu traditions are changing as they are throughout the rest of the world. What can stories of Sita and Draupadi, of Savitri or Sulabha contribute to the contemporary challenges of chapati rolling, childcare and career-making?? Sketching a broad overview of varying female voices from Hindu sacred texts, the talk explores their relevance to Hindu women today.

Time: 6.30pm
