Charisma and Canon Essays on the Religious History of the Indian Subcontinent

The essays in this volume offer vivid glimpses of the interdependence and interaction which formed a vital component of the religious history of the subcontinent, of the selections made by specific traditions from the same storehouse of key texts, of their overlapping but also sharp demarcations from each other. This book will be indispensable for religion, culture, politics, and South Asia specialists, historians, sociologists and all those interested in the complex religious traditions of South Asia.Dalmia, Vasudha is the author of 'Charisma and Canon Essays on the Religious History of the Indian Subcontinent' with ISBN 9780195666205 and ISBN 0195666208.
