Explore the multifaceted nature of motherhood in ‘Mothers: Beyond Maternalism’ by Samita Manna and Sujit Roy. This insightful book delves beyond the universal bio-social presence of mothers to reveal how motherhood is deeply shaped by culture, societal locations, and linguistic nuances. Discover the distinct ‘matritva’ concept in Indic culture, often imbued with divine dimensions and a unique socio-religious status, contrasting it with Western constructs. Through a dharmic perspective, this study uncovers the profound feelings and social agency of Indian mothers, offering a fresh, scholarly examination of motherhood that transcends conventional analyses. Ideal for readers interested in sociology, cultural studies, and feminist discourse.
