520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. "Covering the earliest Sanskrit rulebooks through to the codificatio n of 'Hindu law' in modern times, this interdisciplinary volume examine s the interactions between Hinduism and the law. The authors present th e major transformations to India's legal system in both the colonial an d post colonial periods and their relation to recent changes in Hinduis m. Thematic studies show how law and Hinduism relate and interact in ar eas such as ritual, logic, politics, and literature, offering a broad c overage of South Asia's contributions to religion and law at the inters ection of society, politics and culture. In doing so, the authors build on previous treatments of Hindu law as a purely text-based tradition, and in the process, provide a fascinating account of an often neglected social and political history"--
