Description

Explore a significant gap in Shrivaishnava scholarship with this academic study from the Routledge Hindu Studies Series. This book investigates the history of interpretation surrounding the theological concept of self-surrender, known as prapatti. By examining religious texts from the late twelfth and thirteenth centuries, the research provides a deep look into the Shrivaishnava community of South India. Srilata Mueller presents an original study that views medieval sectarian formation as a fluid and ambivalent process. The work examines how conflict and differentiation emerged through the sharing of common canons, saints, rituals, and languages, including both Tamil and Sanskrit. It also looks at the role of meta-social arenas, such as the temple, in shaping these theological dimensions. This text is an essential resource for scholars and students interested in the religious history and theological development of South Indian traditions.
