Martin, Nancy M. (Professor and Chair, Department of Religious Studies, Professor and Chair, Department of Religious Studies, Chapman University)
Mirabai, an iconic sixteenth-century Indian poet, is renowned for her unwavering love of God, her disregard for social hierarchies and gendered notions of honor and shame, and her challenge to familial, feudal, and religious authorities. In Mirabai, Nancy M. Martin traces the story of this immensely popular Indian saint from the earliest manuscript references to her through colonial and nationalist developments to scholarly and popular portrayals in the decadesleading up to Indian independence.
