About the book

"Exploring the interconnections between the iconic images and the observers' own preconceptions, Pious Flames traces the changing nature of western responses to sati over three and a half centuries. It situates such responses in the context of the ongoing domestic debates about women, religion, suicide, insanity, and the treatment of the human body."--Jacket.
