Abstract: Women’s history is the study of the role that women played in history which includes the growth of women’s rights as recorded in history and the examination of an individual woman of historical significance and the effects of historical events on women. When we analyze the history carefully, one striking and glaring similarity is that different cultures, civilizations and even societies of different faith and religions down the annals of time, women were exploited and subjugated. History was written mainly by men and about men’s activities in public spheres politics, war and diplomacy and administration. Women was usually mentioned or portrayed in stereotyped roles such as mother, wives, daughter and mistress. Religious texts and sacred texts were interpreted in such a way that the women folk remained subjugated and chained by ancient beliefs and traditions. In addition, we read in the history the deplorable plight of Indian women in the 19th and 20th centuries, wherein women were denied even basic human rights. The women were not treated at par with men, and there were many social evils like child marriage, female infanticide and the inhuman practice of Sati. Only a small section of girls had received education. Widow re-marriage was prohibited, devadasi system and dowry system denied liberty to women. As the saying goes ‘old habits die hard’, some of the social evils that haunted the women in the 19th century or the period before continued to be practiced till today even by the educated people. With this background, an attempt has been made in this paper to furnish an overview of the trends in the historiography of women’s history in India since the ancient times.
