Religion Against the Self: An Ethnography of Tamil Rituals
Nabokov, Isabelle (Visiting Assistant Professor of Anthropology, Visiting Assistant Professor of Anthropology, Princeton University)
This book provides a holistic description of Hinduism, showing how different types of Hinduism form a 'total' or systematic cosmology and repeat crucial values through different symbols. Looking at Tamil religious practices, Isabelle Nabokov reveals that Tamil religion is primarily concerned with transformations of identity and subjectivity, both in this world and in the hereafter.
