Confrontations in Context: Intellectual and Lived Spaces Across South Asia and Beyond - Couverture rigide
Synopsis
The contributions to this book address a series of 'confrontations'--debates between intellectual communities, the interplay of texts and images, and the intersection of monumental architecture and physical terrain--and explore the ways in which the legacy of these encounters, and the human responses to them, conditioned cultural production in early South Asia (c. 4th-7th centuries CE). Rather than an agonistic term, the book uses 'confrontation' as a heuristic to examine historical moments within this pivotal period in which individuals and communities were confronted with new ideas and material expressions.
The first half of the volume addresses the intersections of textual, material, and visual forms of cultural production by focusing on three primary modes of confrontation: the relation of inscribed texts to material media, the visual articulation of literary images and, finally, the literary interpretation and reception of built landscapes. The second part of the volume focuses on confrontations both within and between intellectual communities. The articles address the dynamics between peripheral and dominant movements in the history of Indian philosophy.

Hardcover. Etat : Near Fine. Hardcover, viii + 259 pages, NOT ex-library. Mild handling wear, book is clean and bright throughout with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This book addresses a series of 'confrontations': occasions of dynamic exchange and interaction between historical agents and the social and material contexts that defined the lived and intellectual spaces in which they operated. Examining diverse bodies of evidence and modes of cultural production in early South Asia, the individual contributions explore how the lived spaces of writers and artists influenced their ideas and practices, and how texts, objects, and images shaped the identities of their makers and the boundaries of communities. While the legacy of cultural production in the Gupta Period is often categorized as canonical and thus suggests fixity of form and idea, this volume draws attention to the processes and contexts in which the 'classical' took shape and the subsequent reception and revision of its cultural forms. The first half of the volume addresses the intersections of textual, material, and visual forms of cultural production by focusing on three primary modes of confrontation: the relation of inscribed texts to material media, the visual articulation of literary images, and, finally, the literary interpretation and reception of religious media. The second part of the volume focuses on confrontations both within and between intellectual communities. The articles address the dynamics between peripheral and dominant movements in the history of Indian philosophy. N° de réf. du vendeur 008503
