The Aga Khans have long played a prominent part on the
international stage, but much less tends to be understood about the
most important group of their followers, the Khoja Ismailis of
South Asia, who are now also settled in many other parts of the
world. Even less is generally known about the hymns, called ginans,
which have historically formed so central an element in the
religious life and rituals of the Ismaili community. The principal
aim of this anthology is to fill this gap by providing a
sympathetic introduction to this still largely unexplored tradition
of South Asian devotional literature, and to draw attention to the
many features of remarkable interest which it contains.
