Hardcover. Condizione: New. "This is a revised and enlarged edition of the book first published in 1989. Seventeen well researched papers in the volume address important questions thrown up by contemporary research on Hinduism: Do conventional notions of Hinduism need to be reformulated on the basis of new evidence and modern th…eories? Is it prudent to interpret Hinduism without an inter-disciplinary and contextual approach. In short, what does Hinduism mean. The papers reflect a wide variety of opinions on what Hinduism means and help us better understand Hinduism which cannot be forced into watertight inflexible categories.".

Hardcover. Condizione: New. Condizione sovraccoperta: New. 1st Edition. This work more than fulfills the requirement of a comprehensive volume on political processes and the structure of polities in pre-colonial India. It cuts across time and space, and provides the reader with an anthology of seminal contributions on the varied… regions and different stages of Indian history. The introduction incorporates the recent concerns of historians in the field, and engages with the related themes and debates, including their overall implications. It argues that pre-modern states were dynamic insofar as they were continuously changing, adapting and incorporating ideas, spaces and peoples. To understand the dynamics of state system, the volume focuses on several strands: from conceiving processes and structures to situating early historical states, from the making of trans-local early kingdoms to the structure of later regional politics, and the constitution of authority across varying states. This book will interest students and scholars of ancient and medieval India, those interested in the study of the regions, as well as informed general readers. (jacket).

Hardcover. Condizione: New. Condizione sovraccoperta: New. 1st Edition. The Second Orissa Research Project of the German Research Council complemented the first one on the great tradition of Jagannatha of Puri with comprehensive studies on various sub-regional and local traditions and identities in the hinterland of dominant coa…stal Orissa. The present volume introduces (auto) biographies as a fascinating new source for the study of local history and contemporary politics. The narrative brings out the under explored history and identity politics and cultural assertion of a marginal community like Kurmi Mahantas of Orissa in the quest of their Adivasi identity. The work contains, along with its original version, an abridged English translation of the Biography of Niranjan Mahanta, a little known but vital socio-religious reformer of the Kurmi community. The biography focuses on Niranjan's life and time and his engagements as a community activist. It offers insights into the popular culture and the social history of the former Feudatory State of Mayurbhanj in Northern Orissa and its neighbouring districts in present-day Jharkhand and West Bengal. The study exemplifies how a marginal community was engaged in re-defining and locating itself within the hegemonic social order as dominated by the Hindu Brahmanical tradition while battling against the very order.

Hardcover. Condizione: New. 2nd Edition. The present work, a revised, re-set and expanded edition of the 1978 classic presents 27 articles contributed by research scholars of established merit. It deals with a comparatively less studied aspect of Indian culture, namely, the role and significance of regional Hindu traditions that… emerged at the beginning of the early medieval period out of an interaction of elements of classical Hinduism with autochthonous local religious practices and beliefs. Among the regional traditions the cult of Jagannatha in Odisha is most interesting because of its archaic character as well as uninterrupted development until today. The cult is verily a culture and the backbone of Odishan identity. (jacket).
