Description
This book attempts to decode the European representations of
Indian body, emotions and mind in diverse representational
discourses.
Efforts have been made to counter the mind-centered
approaches to body and emotions reassessing the body’s role
in intellectual insight and insisting on the centrality of
the body in the reproduction and transformation of cultural
experiences. The volume is of interest to anyone concerned
with Indian and Cross-cultural studies.
