About the Book
This volume presents a collection of papers from the Jaina Panel at the 31st Deutsche Orientalistentag (DOT), held in Marburg, Germany, from 20th to 24th September 2010. As the most prominent conference of Oriental Studies in Germany, the DOT gathers researchers and academics from various disciplines of Asian, African, and Middle Eastern studies. This compilation focuses specifically on the intersection of Indology and South Asian Studies, with a particular emphasis on Jainism.
The papers cover a wide range of topics, including Jain epistemology, literature, and history. Some of the key studies include: "A Jain Assayer at the Sultan's Mint" by Sreeramula Rajeswara Sarma, "Genealogical Discourse and Jain Sectarian Promotion" by Nalini Balbir, and "An Example of Buddhist-Jainist Congruence in the Kalamasutta" by Bhikkhu Pasadika. Other notable contributions include discussions on Jain haveli temples, new literary forms in Jain medieval literature, and reflections on Jain world history.
This volume is essential reading for scholars of Jainism, Indology, and South Asian studies, offering deep insights into Jain thought and practices from historical, philosophical, and literary perspectives.
