Early Modern India

Beschreibung

CrossAsia-eBooks was renamed Heidelberg Asian Studies Publishing (HASP) in 2022. Titles with publication years 2016 to 2021 were published under "CrossAsia-eBooks". This book presents recent scholarly research on one of the most important literary and historical periods of the Early Modern era from a wide range of approaches and perspectives. It contains a selection of contributions presented at the 12th International Conference on Early Modern Literatures of North India which provide new material as well as innovative methods to approach it.
The organizing principle of the volume lies in its exploration of the links between a multiplicity of languages (Indian vernaculars, Persian, Sanskrit), media (texts, paintings, images) and traditions (Hindu, Jain, Sikh, Muslim). The role of the Persian language and the importance of translations from Sanskrit into Persian are discussed in light of the translational turn. The relations between various yogic traditions, especially of Nath origin, from Kabir and other sampradayas, are also reconsidered.
