Description
Religions in South Asia have tended to be studied in blocks, whether in the various monolithictraditions in which they are now regarded, thus Hindu, Muslim, Buddhist, Sikh, Jain, or indeed intemporal blocks: ancient, medieval, modern. This volume seeks to look at relationships both withinand between religions. It explores the diversity and the multiplicity within each tradition, but also thespecific forms of their co-existence with each other, whether in accord or in antagonism. Its secondmajor concern is to look for grounds shared in the process of modernizing. And finally, it also looks atthe changing social and political frames of reference shared by both religious and secularist strandsof thought. The religions targeted include Hindu discourses, Dalits, Jains, Sikhs, Islamic traditionsincluding the various Sufi orders, and Indian Christians.
