HERstory: Southeast Asia
Welcome to HERstory, the history of Southeast Asia, told from her perspective. We’ll discover historical figures, matriarchal societies, and contemporary female icons — and maybe learn about ourselves along the way. Season 1 focuses on the Southeast Asian age of commerce up to the colonial period.
9 | Indradevi, the Poet Queen of Angkor
In this episode, we’ll meet Queen Indradevi of the Khmer Civilization, one of Cambodia's first known women poets and the author of the Sanskrit poem inscribed on the stele at the temple of Phimeanakas in Siem Reap.
While this episode is called Indradevi, the Poet Queen of Angkor, this really is about three people -- Queen Indradevi, her younger sister Queen Jayarajadevi, and their husband, King Jayavarman VII. Together they formed a sort of royal trinity that transformed Angkor Thom, a metropolis of one million inhabitants in the 12th century.
