Soft cover. Zustand: New. 'Places Buddhist monuments in a social, geographical and spiritual context' His Holiness the Dalai Lama 'Fresh, thoughtful' Susan L. Huntington 'Wonderfully engaging and accessible' Upinder Singh 'Breathes life into Buddhist monuments' Himanshu Prabha Ray 'Successfully collates key case studies and theories within the archaeology of Buddhism' Julia Shaw The story of how Buddhism set down its roots in India is enshrined within ancient stupas, temples, monasteries and caves the silent sentinels of this enduring faith. Casting the Buddha takes the reader on a journey through the rich history of the enchanting Mahabodhi temple, intricate Sanchi stupas, Ajanta's vibrant murals, Nalanda's grand ruins and beyond, exploring how these spaces offered unique environments for art, philosophy, devotion and politics to intermingle. Sinha follows the trail of the Buddha's footsteps as the latter went from enlightenment and teaching to an idea that inspired the creation of these grand monuments, blurring the lines between the history and myth of his existence. Some of these are now UNESCO World Heritage sites that draw millions of pilgrims from around the world, while also playing a key role in global politics by firmly establishing India as a guardian of Buddhism and a diplomatic ally to its Buddhist neighbours. A window into the life and times of Buddhists then and now, this comprehensive account paints a remarkable picture of how these breathtaking sites once safe havens for kings, monks, traders and laity alike have survived centuries of tumultuous history to tell the story of human and stone. Well-researched, insightful and richly illustrated, Casting the Buddha infuses new life into a timeless faith. ABOUT THE SERIES Combining powerful storytelling with deep, recent scholarship, the Magnificent Heritage series uses multidisciplinary approaches to showcase a fresh perspective on heritage sites, locating them in their larger geographical, sociocultural and historical contexts.

How is gender ideology reproduced in adivasi societies How far can gender constructions be instrumental in perpetuating womens subjugation and exploitation Focusing upon Chotanagpur now a part of the newly formed state of Jharkhand Shashank Shekhar Sinha tries to raise questions that are of paramount concern yet are so peripheral in the existing studies on tribes and genderInvestigating traditions an area largely ignored by historians and social scientists Sinha tries to show how these can influence and structure the construction and reproduction of gender identities It is true that women were hardly positioned as equals in adivasi societies or indeed in mainstream Indian society but they played an important role in the traditional division of labour Women were the cultivators they sold produce in the markets and they sold their labour Later they were to play a significant role in the adivasi uprisings against colonial exploitation Under the impact of colonialism and market capitalism they were pushed to the margins of resulting political economics In addition the infiltration of caste and religious influences brought about significant shifts in traditional gender identities Women faced three systems of discrimination patriarchy colonialism and capitalism all reinforcing and on occasions working in tandem with each other This book discusses how women negotiated with these complex systems sometimes visibly sometimes invisibly 290 pp.
