Drawing on insights from Indian intellectual tradition, this book
examines the conception of dharma by Jaimini in his Mimamsasutras,
assessing its contemporary relevance, particularly within ritual
scholarship. Presenting a hermeneutical re-reading of the text, it
investigates the theme of the relationship between subjectivity and
tradition in the discussion of dharma, bringing it into
conversation with contemporary discourses on ritual. The primary
argument offered is that Jaimini's conception of dharma can be read
as a philosophy of Vedic practice, centred on the enjoinment of the
subject, whose stages of transformation possess the structure of a
hermeneutic tradition. Offering both substantive and methodological
insights into the contentions within the contemporary study of
ritual, this book will be of interest to researchers in the fields
of Hindu studies, ritual studies, Asian religion, and South Asian
studies.
