Reciting the Goddess: Narratives of Place and the Making of Hinduism in Nepal
Birkenholtz, Jessica Vantine (Assistant Professor of Religion, University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign)
Reciting the Goddess is the first book-length study of Nepal's goddess Svasthani and the popular Svasthanivratakatha textual tradition. Drawing on archival and ethnographic research, it examines the making of Hinduism in Nepal, a history that is largely neglected in master narratives of Hinduism on the Indian subcontinent.
