Rövid leírás:
Hinduism: The Essential Readings is a compact but comprehensive collection of readings spanning the entire history of Hinduism, including both classic texts and non-traditional voices. No reader on the market will have the chronological, topical, and authorial breadth of this volume.
TöbbHosszú leírás:
Hinduism: The Essential Readings stands out as the most comprehensive anthology of Hindu writings thus far. This all-encompassing reader divides into ten chapters, each covering its own genre of Hindu writings. Each chapter begins with an introduction that will define key concepts found in the passages, followed by its chronological readings, and end with a set of discussion questions to connect the chapter's content to common themes and help students point to the pivotal development of ideas across time.
[Hinduism: The Essential Readings] clearly fills an important hole in the academic book market with its student-friendly size and wide historical scope. There is no single anthology at present that offers comprehensive readings from the Hindu tradition, from all historical periods". - Eric Steinschneider, Assistant Professor, Department of Philosophy and Religion, Ithaca College
