Shared Idioms, Sacred Symbols, and the Articulation of Identities in South Asia - Routledge Studies in Religion
Kelly Pemberton
This work focuses on processes of articulating identity. The notions of "shared idioms" and "sacred symbols" shaping this volume suggest both a search for common ground and boundary-drawing processes. Individual chapters locate "sites" of these modes and the conditions that engender them, problematizing the truth-claims of unitary markers of identity.
