Hindu Pasts: Women, Religion, Histories
Dalmia, Vasudha
In her introduction to Hindu Pasts--which showcases her work as a scholar of social, literary, and religious history--Vasudha Dalmia outlines the central ideas which thread her writings: first, to understand in greater historical depth the relationship between body language, religion, and society in India, as well as the ever-changing role of its religious and social institutions; second, to recognize that the Hindu tradition, which colonials and nationalists tend to see as monolithic, is in fact a multiplicity of distinct and semi-autonomous strands.
