SUMMARY:Feminism: Projections of Gender and Body in Literature
DESCRIPTION:ABOUT THE EVENT\nThe feminist discourse is understood and experienced differently in different parts of the world. This is also reflected in literature. In this conversation with writers and publishers from Germany and India\, we will explore how feminism and gender relations are reflected through literature in the two countries. We will discuss ways in which projections\, societal norms and global movements have shifted the feminist discourse over time. \nPARTICIPANTS\nMithu Melanie Sanyal was born in Düsseldorf in 1971 and is a cultural scientist\, writer\, journalist and critic.
