Introducing an analysis of the inter-relationship of Hindu arts -
sculpture, dance, drama, music and temple architecture, this text
examines the importance of certain key art forms throughout the
Indian subcontinent.;The definition of what is meant by religion
(no such word exists in Sanskrit), and what is understood by Hindu
ideals of beauty, form the background of the later chapters of the
book, which examine the role of artists, patrons and users; the
symbolism of the temple, the image of deities and the didactic role
of the arts. The author concludes that Hinduism emerges as a
religion in the modern sense of the term, but also through its art,
as a social religious whole.
