Book Synopsis Hindu Law by : Patrick Olivelle
Download or read book Hindu Law written by Patrick Olivelle. This book was released on 2018. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The foundation of Hindu law is the voluminous textual tradition called Dharmaśāstra, the expert tradition on dharma. This book seeks to delineate the historical development of Dharmaśāstra, even though the tradition presented dharma as timeless and ahistorical. The volume establishes the importance of law for the history and study of Hinduism by providing interpretive descriptions of all the major topics of Hindu dharma according to this tradition. First, two broad introductions to the historical development of the textual sources of Hindu law suggest new ways to understand both the original texts (smṛti) and the later commentaries and digests. Next, groundbreaking research into the origin of the householder (gṛhastha), who is at the center of the Dharmaśāstric enterprise, provides new insights into both the origin of this genre and many of its topics, such as the āśrama system and married household life. The book devotes its central chapters to each of the major topics of Dharmaśāstra: epistemology of dharma, caste and social class, orders of life, rites of passage, Vedic student and graduate, marriage, children, inheritance, women, daily duties, food, gifting, funeral and ancestral offerings, impurity and purification, ascetic modes of life, dharma during emergencies, king, punishment, legal procedure, titles of law, penances, vows, pilgrimage, images, and temples. The final chapters then explore both the reception of Dharmaśāstra in other religious traditions, both Hindu and Buddhist, and the relevance of Dharmaśāstra to studies of critical concepts in religious studies—the body, emotions, material culture, subjectivity, animal studies, and vernacular culture."--

Book Synopsis Cases of Hindu Law by : William Austin Montriou
Download or read book Cases of Hindu Law written by William Austin Montriou. This book was released on 2017-07-26. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cases of Hindu Law: Before H. M. Supreme Court, During the First Thirty Years of the Court's Establishment; In Continuation of the Second Edition of Decisions of the Supreme Court &C. By T. C. Morton, Esq. The length and importance of the cases are the editor's motive and apology for giving them as an instalment. Not only are the ear lier decisions less known, but they have a peculiar value; in that they embrace the ten years of Sir Wm. Jones' judicial labour, and that they furnish the best evidence of the manner in which the able judges (with a bar not less able) who were first called upon to administer the Hindu law of the Supreme Court, construed and dealt with many prominent doctrines of that law.
