Tekst achterflap

"An outstanding introduction to goddess traditions across South and Southeast Asia. Its careful translations of diverse sources bring the myths and practices of goddess traditions directly to the reader. There is no other work like it."--Richard S. Weiss, author of The Emergence of Modern Hinduism: Religion on the Margins of Colonialism

"The carefully researched essays in this volume help us gain new insights into local goddess traditions in South Asia. The primary sources translated into English for the first time greatly enhance the value of this book. I highly recommend it for use in undergraduate courses."--Gudrun Bühnemann, author of The Iconography of Hindu Tantric Deities
