Beschreibung
A vast corpus of Jain texts lies unexamined in manuscript libraries, several of them new versions of earlier works. Though the prevalence of literary transcreation in Jain communities is striking, it is by no means a practice exclusive to them. The field of South Asian Studies has increasingly dealt with the creative engagement of authors with an authoritative literary object. Although these studies have brought to the fore important conclusions, the Jains as a literary community have remained absent from these discussions. This volume addresses this gap, highlighting the influential role of Jain authors in the multilingual literary world of South Asia. With contributions by John Brockington - Mary Brockington - Eva De Clercq - Gregory M. Clines - John E. Cort - Heleen De Jonckheere - Anna Aurelia Esposito - Basile Leclère - Anil Mundra - Shubha Shanthamurthy - Neha Tiwari - Simon Winant
