Autorenporträt
Mandakranta Bose, Emeritus Professor at the University of British Columbia, Vancouver, is a former director of the university’s Centre for India and South Asia Research, and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Canada, the Royal Asiatic Society of Great Britain, and the Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies. A Sanskrit scholar, Professor Bose is an alumnus of Calcutta University, the University of British Columbia, and Oxford University, with a D. Phil. degree in Sanskrit from Oxford. Among her many books and articles on the Hindu religion, Sanskrit literature, epics of India, classical dance and drama, gender issues, are: The Goddess (Oxford, 2018), The Ramayana in Bengali Folk Paintings (New Delhi, 2017), and “Theology, Sexuality and Gender in the Hindu Tradition” (Oxford Handbook of Theology, Gender and Sexuality, 2015). The Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies is an academy for the study of Hindu cultures, societies, philosophies, religions, and languages. The Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies Mandala Publishing Series offers authoritative yet accessible introductions to a wide range of subjects in Hindu Studies. Each book in the series aims to present its subject matter in a form that is engaging and readily comprehensible to persons of all backgrounds – academic or otherwise – without compromising scholarly rigour. The series thus bridges the divide between academic and popular writing by preserving and utilising the best elements of both. General Editor: Lucian Wong Editorial Board: John Brockington, Avni Chag, James Madaio, and Valters Negribs For information on Continuing Education Courses at the Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies, visit www.ochsonline.org
