Sanskrit Śaiva Intellectuals in the Empire: Innovations, Textual Practices and Religious Interactions in the Late Vijayanagara Period
This project aimed at the reconstruction of Śaivism’s intellectual history during the late Vijayanagara period will center on the above-mentioned schools’ a) major doctrinal and philosophical positions, with a focus on their innovations; b) their mutual influences and interactions: social, intellectual, etc.; c) their scholars’ authorial intentions, textual practices and argumentative strategies; and d) their interactions with non-Śaiva religious groups and intellectuals. In addition to shedding new light on the well known religious diversity of the empire, this project will present a new picture of the Vijayanagara empire―one of the most historically significant courtly contexts in precolonial India―as a vital unit of the global intellectual culture of the Indian subcontinent during the late medieval/early modern period.

Цел на проекта
This project entitled ‘‘Sanskrit Śaiva Intellectuals in the Empire: Innovations, Textual Practices and Religious Interactions in the Late Vijayanagara period’’ examines the transformative role of Sanskrit Śaiva intellectuals in reshaping the religious landscape of South India during the late Vijayanagara period, i.e., from the mid-fifteenth century to the end of the sixteenth century. It is intended to be the first in-depth study of the intellectual history of two influential Śaiva schools of philosophical theology―Śivādvaita Vedānta and Vīraśaivism―on the basis of a rigorous philological and contextual analysis of selected Sanskrit and vernacular textual sources as well as epigraphic material. The evidence will be discussed in terms of the schools’ major doctrinal and philosophical positions, textual practices, as well as mutual influences and interactions with other religious groups. The aims of this project are: 1) to assess the impact of Sanskrit Śaiva intellectuals on the broader intellectual and religious world of the late Vijayanagara period, and their relation to the Vijayanagara royal court; and 2) to shed new light on the complex relationships between the various religious groups active during the last decades of the empire, in a context of increasing sectarian debates and dramatic socio-cultural transformations. The project will be carried out at the University of Oxford, one of the most renowned centres in Europe for the study of late medieval and early modern Sanskrit intellectual history.
