      abstract = {"Offering multilayered explorations of Hindu  understandings of the Feminine, both human and divine, this  book emphasizes theological and activist methods and aims  over historical, anthropological, and literary ones. The  contributors approach the Feminine in Hindu traditions from  the standpoint of intersubjective construction via a method  that can be termed dialexis. Here, dialexis refers to a  form of intellectual engagement "across styles" that takes  as its starting point an adequate accounting of  contextualized signification. The diverse ways that  cultures articulate themselves are rooted in lexical  choices made in historical, geographical, and cultural  contexts"--},
