Knut A. Jacobsen (Editor-in-Chief), University of Bergen , and Helene Basu, University of M???nster , Angelika Malinar, University of Z???rich , Vasudha Narayanan, University of Florida (Associate Editors) Covering the entire breadth of the previous five installments, volume VI of Brill's Encyclopedia of Hinduism is an essential reference guide offering systematized insight into the terminology of this comprehensive work of scholarship. In addition, it presents a dozen articles that are missing from earlier volumes. The rich general index consists of all terms from the past volumes. Each concept term included in the general index is glossed and identified by language (Sanskrit, the Indic vernaculars, Persian, etc.). Moreover, the general index is divided into some two dozen categories, such as divinities, performance traditions, religious traditions, and poets/teachers/saints (the latter two further separated into pre-19th century and modern). With an estimated 25,000 entries, this index volume represents a valuable companion to the main-entry essays and an indispensable resource for all who study the history and structure of Hindu traditions.
