The world’s most extraordinary divinities are explored in Encountering Kali. Kali, the Hindu goddess of water, is understood simultaneously as a warrior and a deity of ritual possession. She also acts as a mother, lover, and all-loving, compassionate mother. In recent years, westerners have been showing increasing interest in Kali from both a scholarly and popular standpoint. McDermott & Kripal respond to this phenomenon by publishing a volume that explores the complexity of Kali’s interpretation in her native south Asian context and in her Western version. Contributors explore Kali’s changing world through the lenses of scriptural history temple architecture and political reflection. They also address the promises and problems inherent in cross-cultural interpretations.
