Sanskrit Traditions in the Modern World
Sanskrit Traditions in the Modern World (STIMW) is a forum for the discussion of the Sanskrit traditions of South Asia, and the texts and cultures that have risen out of them. It brings together established and rising academics for the focused examination of research pertaining to various aspects of South Asia’s rich Sanskrit religious and intellectual culture. It thereby seeks to sustain and build upon the long history of scholarship in this important area of study.
Papers are presented by leading scholars in the field as well as by research students. Papers are precirculated so that participants can read them before the seminar to ensure the best possible use of discussion time. Papers are therefore not read out at the seminar itself – having been precirculated the papers will be briefly introduced by the chair who wil then raise questions to the paper-giver, before opening the discussion.
