"The Divine Consort offers a unique exploration of the history and legacy of goddesses in Hinduism. Leading scholars present a many-sided analysis of Radha, Krishna's lover and consort; they examine her character as it emerges in Sanskrit and vernacular literature, her intimate relation to Krishna and the theology that surrounds her. Richly illustrated, The Divine Consort provides a fascinating glimpse of Indian religion and culture for the Western reader." Publisher's description.
