Mukhopadhyay, Anway.
Literary and Cultural Readings of Goddess Spirituality : the Red Shadow of the Mother. - Newcastle-upon-Tyne : Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2017. - 1 online resource (196 pages)
This volume explores the potentials of Goddess spirituality in the field of cultural critique, and strings together innovative readings of already existing literary texts and cultural phenomena from the critical perspective of Goddess spirituality. The chapters explore a colourful array of texts and authors, and focus on issues as diverse as the persistence of the figure of the Magna Mater in the life, writing and thought of Swami Vivekananda and Sri Aurobindo, the inability of Advaita Vedanta to come out of the shadow of the Great Mother, the possibility of pluralizing the Eurocentric notion.
