Roads to Knowledge: Hermeneutical and Lexical Probes

The first volume edited by the Department of Oriental Studies (University of Turin, Italy) includes a wide range of Indological Studies, from Sanskrit and Hindi research on language to contemporary Indian writers in English, plus a paper dealing with a tradition of the Middle East. The scholarly focus of the miscellany moves from the past to the present, encompassing Gandhi and the tradition of the Vedas, the myth of the Goddess and the rise of Hindu Nationalism.
