520 $aInfinite Variety: Women in Society and Literature includes papers by 22 scholars from Bangladesh, India, Sri Lanka and the United Kingdom on a variety of aspects relating to women as well as a selection of short stories and poems - in the original Bangla and English translation - by leading contemporary women writers of Bangladesh. A valuable introduction analyses feminism and traces the different forms it has taken in Europe, America and Asia.
520 8 $aThe papers discuss various pertinent issues. For example, What strategies did the woman novelist in nineteenth-century Bengal employ to voice her protest? Why are educational novels proscribed reading for women? How do minority or colonised women overcome their double disadvantages? What leads a woman poet like Sarojini Naidu to relinquish her poetic vocation? And what strategies does a woman like Rokeya Sakhawat Hossein use to liberate women from the strangehold of a patriarchal society?
520 8 $aA first-person account by a woman politician-cum-editor analyses the pitfalls of journal publication. Together, the analytical papers and selected creative writing form a valuable addition to feminist studies at the same time as they provide an insight into Bengali women's writing today.
