This volume develops a historically informed phenomenology of caste
and untouchability. It explores the idea of 'Brahmin' and the
practice of untouchability by offering a scholarly reading of
ancient and medieval texts. By going beyond the notions of purity
and pollution, it presents a new framework of understanding
relationships between social groups and social categories. An
important intervention in the study of caste and untouchability,
this book will be an essential read for the scholars and
researchers of political studies, political philosophy, cultural
studies, Dalit studies, Indology, sociology, social anthropology
and Ambedkar studies.
