Pełny opis: |
(tylko po angielsku) Brahmins play a central role in Indian society and religion. The traditional view is that this has always been like that from Vedic times onward. A closer inspection of the evidence shows that the situation is more complicated. Brahmanism was a regional ideology that went through a crisis during the centuries preceding the Common Era. The Brahmanism that came out of this difficult period was in many respects quite different from what it had been before. In this new shape it interacted with other cultures and religions, and succeeded in spreading over the whole of South-Asia and into Southeast-Asia. This spread took place without the help of armies, missionaries or empires. This course will study and analyse the factors responsible for this remarkable development, perhaps unique in human history. |
