Rites of the God-King: Santi and Ritual Change in Early Hinduism - Oxford Ritual Studies Series
Geslani, Marko (Assistant Professor of Sanskrit and Premodern South Asian Religions, Assistant Professor of Sanskrit and Premodern South Asian Religions, Emory University)

Drawing theoretical connections to modern ethnographies, it raises questions about the nature of kingship and priesthood, image-worship, and ritual change.
