It is my distinct pleasure to announce the publication of ‘Hindus and Others: A Sri Lankan Perspective’, a special issue in The South Asianist Journal, and co-edited by Mathieu Claveyrolas, Pierre-Yves Trouillet, Delon Madavan and Anthony Goreau-Ponceaud.
http://www.southasianist.ed.ac.uk/issue/view/245
Following a workshop held in Paris in 2015, the purpose of this special issue is to start from the Sri Lankan case to study how Hinduism and Hindus define others and interact with them, and what these interactions reveal about Hinduism in general and about Sri Lankan Hinduism in particular, especially regarding religious, social, political and territorial issues. By addressing such relations to the Other from the Hindu point of view, the volume proposes more broadly to develop a critical conception of Hinduism, which considers this religion as a point of contact between various social and religious groups.
Warmest regards,
Michael Heneise
