"In The #Marital Knot: #Agunot in the #Ashkenazi Realm, 1648-1850 (Brandeis University Press), Dr. #NoaShashar of #SapirAcademicCollege in #Israel, has written an absolutely fascinating #book that details the plights of agunot from the time of the #Khmelnytskyuprising to 1850.
While agunot today are a somewhat rare occurrence, in the period she writes of, wars, persecution, accidents, and natural disasters, as well as travel along dangerous roads, the possibility of assuming a false identity, and conversion to Christianity, all made agunot not uncommon in the least.
The book details the lives of agunot during 1648-1850 and the men who brought about this situation. It traces the states of these #widows, whose husbands were nowhere to be found."

One of the widows tries to encourage a woman living on the streets to come to stay with her in a shelter. There is homelessness among the widows of #Vrindavan, and some are too traumatised by their past to be able to cope in the structured environment of a hostel.

Clad mostly in white and abstaining from celebrations, widows can be seen as bad luck. Many do not have identity cards and cannot vote, so are ignored by the authorities, leaving them excluded from welfare and support services. Many women in #Vrindavan struggle with depression, loneliness and isolation. They can find it hard to make friends, often longing for their past lives and blaming themselves for their misfortune.

Solace and sisterhood: the Indian holy city where ostracised widows find a new home
Women from all over West Bengal and beyond travel to #Vrindavan for a life of prayer, many having suffered abuse, stigma and abandonment by families who see them as cursed. Up to 20,000 widows – nearly 20% of the city’s population – have found refuge in ashrams and shelters that have sprung up to support them
