Regional Communities of Devotion in South Asia: Insiders, Outsiders, and Interlopers
Comparative vs. Hagiology: Two Variant Approaches to the Field
There is a basic tension within the idea of Comparative Hagiology, because the two terms that constitute its name are incongruous. To formulate a comparative hagiological project, we must choose at the outset which term will take priority. Prioritizing the comparative in comparative hagiology orients us to focus more on the basic disciplinary approaches to gather compare-able data, leaving hagiology as a placeholder whose content will be defined …

Pedagogical Otherness: The Use of Muslims and Untouchables in Some Hindu Devotional Literature

Emphatically Ignoring the Neighbours: The Selective Geographic Orientation of Marathi Bhakti
This article explores the development of a sacred landscape in the major Marathi bhakti tradition, whose poetry and hagiographical stories reveal a strong consciousness of bhakti in North India while turning a relatively blind eye to the South.

By examining this history alongside fragme…
Eknāth in context: The literary, social, and political milieus of an early modern saint-poet 1
This article attempts to envision the sixteenth-century brahman saint-poet, Eknāth of Paiṭhaṇ, in his historical context by plotting what is known about him over against recent scholarship on early modern India.
