| Beschreibung: | |
| The feminist significance of the goddess Kali lies in an indigenous worshipful attitude of "Kali-bhakti" rather than in the mere image of the goddess. The peculiar mother-child motif at the core of the poet Ramprasad Sen's "Kali-bhakti" represents, I argue, not only a dramatic reconstruction of femininity but of selfhood in general. The spiritual goal of a devotee here involves a deconstruction of "master identity" necessary also for ethico-political struggles for justice. | |
