Crossing the Lines of Caste: Visvamitra and the Construction of Brahmin Power in Hindu Mythology
Sathaye, Adheesh A. (Associate Professor, Department of Asian Studies, Associate Professor, Department of Asian Studies, University of British Columbia)
Crossing the Lines of Caste offers a cultural-historical analysis of the legends of Visvamitra, a sage who is said to have used his ascetic power to change his caste and become a Brahmin. It reveals how and why mythological culture has played an active role in the construction of Brahmin social power for more than three thousand years.
