Abstract

This article seeks to analyse the evolution of social hierarchies in ancient India. While the primary focus of the article is on gender hierarchy, it also attempts an examination of the intersection of class and caste as well. This article seeks to trace the linkages between women and śūdra in the ancient textual sources. It has also been argued that since hierarchy is never organic but a deliberate act of creation, in this deliberation, alternative possibilities are either marginalised or effaced.
压迫的等级制度:古印度种姓和性别的前身
本文试图分析古印度社会等级制度的演变。虽然文章的主要重点是性别等级制度,但也试图研究阶级和种姓的交叉。本文试图追溯古代文本资料中妇女与śūdra 之间的联系。文章还认为,由于等级制度从来都不是有机的,而是一种刻意的创造行为,在这种刻意的创造过程中,其他的可能性要么被边缘化,要么被抹杀。
