    It may be expected of the Kingsley Martin lecturer that he addresses a theme of topical relevance. This is as it should be, for the modern history of South Asia offers an exceptionally wideranging choice of themes for reflection and inquiry. It will, then, seem strangely inappropriate to go to the other end of the time scale, to the early beginnings of Indian civilization. It would be vain to try and advance an excuse for this turn-about - such e…

    Open Access•J C Heesterman•ARTICLE•Itinerario•1991•References: 2

    I should preface this paper with a cautionary note. It is not intended to parade as a full-fledged scholarly paper bringing new or little known facts. Nor does it aim at novel theories or interpretations. It does not even have its roots in the fascinating details and problems of Luso-Indian history per se. It only wants to propose a somewhat different, although not overly novel, perspective. This perspective is – not surprisingly – an indological…

  • I. The ‘Hindu Frontier’

    Open Access•J C Heesterman•ARTICLE•Itinerario•1989•References: 3

    Before embarking on our exploration a word of caution is in order. The following is not meant to be a full-fledged scholarly paper pulling out all the available evidence. All it intends to do is to throw out a couple of suggestions which hopefully may give rise to discussion. It is, therefore, an unabashed exercise in speculation. Also it will endeavour to compress within the compass of a brief paper complicated and diverging developments taking …

  • India and the Predicament of Development

    Open Access•J C Heesterman•ARTICLE•Itinerario•1987

    Until quite recently India used to be depicted as an area of developmental darkness, a pool of mute tradition, stubborn stagnation and general failure. To be sure, it had known a glorious past, but that made the contemporary picture even more dismal. It can not be said that India's propaganda efforts have done much to dispel this picture. In the popular imagination it remains a country of marvels – mostly of the past – and monstrosities determini…

  • The Inner Conflict of Tradition: Essays in Indian Ritual, Kingship, and Society

    Open Access•Raj S Gandhi, J C Heesterman•ARTICLE•The Canadian Journal of Sociology•1986

  • IV. Unity and Diversity in India and Indonesia

    Open Access•J C Heesterman•ARTICLE•Itinerario•1986•Cited by: 3•References: 5

    When we intone the words ‘Unity in Diversity’, we know we are faced with a problem. At best these words express an aspiration rather than a reality — otherwise it would hardly be worthwhile to utter them. But most of all they seem to be an incantation meant to exorcize the threat of both disruptive diversity and oppressive unity. It is, in other words, a mantra that owes its expressiveness to the neatly concise formulation of an unresolved parado…

    L'A. analyse et essaie d'interpreter les rituels de consecration du roi et les relations conflictuelles qu'il entretient avec les brahmanes. Les textes sacres garantissent au roi un statut sacre et divin et une fonction de pretre. Le role du roi est de maintenir l'ordre universel du dharma| mais l'autorite du dharma transcende le roi et est confiee aux brahmanes dont le domaine exclusif est la sruti vedique, source de tout dharma

On le retrouve depuis le XVIIe siècle déjà dans les rapports et mémoires des Européens, employés des compagnies ou autres voyageurs.
