Sharpe On the Sharpe Symposium
Only once before have I responded to a reviewer. On that occasion, some fifteen years ago, three years had elapsed between the review and the response; and in that time the distinguished reviewer had been gathered to his ancestors. Understandably, therefore, the debate came to an end at that point. I have the same feeling on this far more elaborate occasion: not one of resentment at having been hauled over the scholarly coals, but a feeling of di…

Avatara and Sakti: Traditional symbols in the Hindu renaissance
The Hindu Renaissance is commonly regarded as having begun seriously in the 1870's, consequent upon the foundation in 1875 of the Ārya Samāj in the West of India.' But this is in many ways a date of convenience. The roots of the movement go back, particularly as far as Bengal is concerned, to the time of Rammohun Roy, when on the one hand there was created a serious, though small-scale. Hindu reform movement, and on the other there was introduced…

Terms in which it can be conducted have not yet, however, been widely found. It will be illuminating to discover whether among diverse groups conversation in the terms propounded here could prove fruitful, or at least mutually intelligible. This will be a highly significant test of the theory, expeci…

Some problems of method in the study of religion
Nathan Söderblom and the Study of Religion
To the student of the recent history of theological ideas in the West, it sometimes seems as though, of all the ‘new’ subjects that have been intro duced into theological discussion during the last hundred or so years, only two have proved to be of permanent significance. One is, of course, biblical criticism, and the other, the subject which in my University is still called ‘comparative religion’—the (as far as possible) dispassionate study of t…
