Descripción

About The Book: The book undertakes a systematic exploration of the interrelations among the four castes in Indian society as delineated in the Law-book of Manu, while addressing pertinent questions pivotal to grasping the text's ramifications. It draws upon significant scholarly contributions by Weber and Muir, offering insights into caste dynamics as depicted in Brahmanical and Sutra literature. Weber's scrutiny particularly illuminates both agreements and inconsistencies between Manu and other texts such as Gobhila, Kau?ika, Paraskara, and Taittiriya Samhita. Through this comparative analysis, the essay endeavors to untangle the intricacies of caste relationships within Manu's legal framework, enriching our comprehension of ancient Indian social organization.
