Discourses on Siva is a collection of essays on the nature of
religious imagery in Indian art. Focusing on Saivite monuments,
Saivite iconography, iconology, literary sources, and forms of
Siva, they fulfill several intentions: to clarify the historical
processes of and rationales for image formation in India; to give
an overview of current methodologies for approaching art in its
Indian context, particularly of the ways in which scholars have
established subtle as well as obvious links between visual and
written traditions; and to create a foundation for viewing
religious art in India in relation to more "literary" artistic
traditions elsewhere.
