Tarabai Shinde

Tarabai Shinde, born in the Berar province of Buldhana, was a women’s right’s activist who protested patriarchy. Her first published work, Stri Purush Tulana, which translates to, A Comparison between Women and Men is considered to be one the country’s first modern feminist text. Her defiance of inherent patriarchy in Hindu scriptures are views that remain controversial even today.

Tarabai was born in 1850, a period when the British Raj was at its peak and the quality of life for women in the country had become worse. Tarabai’s father was Bapuji Hari Shinde, a head clerk in the office of Deputy Commissioner of Revenues. He was a radical thinker himself  who had a book published – Hint to the educated natives. A qualified academic with Tarabai as his only daughter, Bapuji honed her linguistic skills by teaching her languages such as Marathi, Sanskrit, and English. Due to societal norms at the time she became a child-bride.
