Explore the complex relationship between women and nation-building in India through this 40-minute lecture that examines how women have been represented in national discourse and their evolving roles in Indian society. Analyze the intersection of gender, politics, and national identity while investigating how women's contributions to the nation have been portrayed, celebrated, or marginalized throughout India's history. Delve into theoretical frameworks that examine women's participation in nationalist movements, their symbolic representation in national narratives, and the ways in which concepts of womanhood have been constructed in relation to ideas of nationhood and citizenship in the Indian context.
