This ambitious work of intellectual history reconstructs from several languages and ethnic regions the story of the legendary queen Padmini, which for many centuries has helped to define Indian notions of kinship and marriage. The author excavates archaic source material to describe Jain, Rajput, Sufi, Bengal, and other variations of the story, documenting among other themes anticolonial/anti-Mughal elements that preceded the arrival of British colonialism. Ramya Sreenivasan is assistant professor of history at SUNY-Buffalo.
