This book focuses on the cohering elements across various texts and
traditions of India. It engages with several significant works from
the Sanskrit tradition and emphasizes the need to move beyond
colonial and postcolonial engagements with the enduring cultural
pasts of India. The chapters are grouped in three main parts:
accented rhythms, dispersed mnemoscapes and inventive iterations.
It addresses questions such as: what enabled cultural communication
across very divergent geographical, temporal, locational contexts
and among different cultural formations of India over millennia?
What is this shareable impulse that pulsates across the domains of
dance, sculpture, painting, poetry, dharma, music, medicine, the
lore of rivers and the epics? It explains how modern Indian
languages and especially their creative and reflective nodes are
unthinkable without the intricately woven textures of these
interfaces and their responsive receptions. This book is of
interest to philosophers, humanities students, researchers and
professors as well as people interested in exploring alternatives
to European traditions of thought without an alibi.
