Abstract
This article purports to show how The Rape of Sita re-writes the Hindu epic, the Ramayana, which is recontextualised in contemporary Mauritian time and space in order to make a subversive political comment on Western patriarchal society. Through the posing of ethical questions, language becomes a form of social action, a re-signifying practice, which calls for change by generating another story.
