Abstract

Ist emanzipatorisches Handeln von Frauen innerhalb einer religiös-patriarchalen Kultur möglich? Wird es gesucht? Es löst oft ein Unbehagen aus, wenn Frauen ihre Identität und Macht in anderen Kontexten verorten als in säkularen Vorstellungen von Begehren und Freiheit. Anhand der tamilischen Mystikerin Andal (9. Jh.) und Beispielen der gegenwärtigen hinduistischen Kultur wird Fragen nach Widerstand, Unterwerfung und systemischer Gewalt nachgegangen.
