Paperback. Condizione: New. A literary and historical investigation into an ancient Indian religious thinker, tracing his rise in importance in the Hindu tradition.In this fascinating study, Steven E. Lindquist investigates the intersections between historical context and literary production in the "life" of Yajñavalkya, the most important ancient Indian literary figure prior to the Buddha. Known for his sharp tongue and deep thought, Yajñavalkya is associated with a number of "firsts" in Indian religious literary history: the first person to discuss brahman and atman thoroughly; the first to put forth a theory of karma and reincarnation; the first to renounce his household life; and the first to dispute with women in religious debate.

Paperback. Condizione: New. This volume brings together sixteen articles on the religions, literatures and histories of South and Central Asia in tribute to Patrick Olivelle, one of North America's leading Sanskritists and historians of early India.
