Hardcover. Zustand: new. Hardcover. R?m?nuja, a well known religious figure of the medieval bhakti tradition, is remembered as a philosopher, social reformer and the most important ?c?rya of the ?r?vai??ava community of South India. This book analyses the delineation of R?m?nuja in the ?r?vai??ava hagiographies between twelfth and fourteenth centuries. These early hagiographical illustrations composed within the context of evolving community identity registered a process of canonization andconstructed specific historical memories that were disseminated to the subsequent generations and were further encrusted upon with fresh narratives.The modern biographiescrucial for popularizing R?m?nuja outside the ?r?vai??ava community ignored the variations of the hagiographical delineations and presented a seamless account of R?m?nuja's life, often overlooking the fact that the image of an individual is usually a result of accretions of motifs in history. Emphasizing the dialogic interaction between the hagiographies and biographies, this study argues that the hagiographies and biographies cannot always be understood within the binaries of the sacred andthe secular.Based upon a range of historical sources comprising the hagiographies, praise-poems (stotras) dedicated to R?m?nuja, inscriptions and modern works, this study will alsoanalyse various moments of interactions in history when the structuring of the notion of a remembered past and the historical memories through which the past would become a received tradition was being attempted at. This book explores the history and role of hagiographies and their impact on the growth and evolution of a biographical tradition. Focusing on Ramanuja, one of the foremost reformers and Vaisnava saints, it presents the hagiographical accounts of his life within the historical context of the twelfth, thirteenth, and fourteenth centuries when the processes of canonization took place.

Neuware - R m nuja, a well known religious figure of the medieval bhakti tradition, is remembered as a philosopher, social reformer and the most important c rya of the r vai ava community of South India. This book analyses the delineation of R m nuja in the r vai ava hagiographies between twelfth and fourteenth centuries. These early hagiographical illustrations composed within the context of evolving community identity registered a process of canonization and constructed specific historical memories that were disseminated to the subsequent generations and were further encrusted upon with fresh narratives. The modern biographies crucial for popularizing R m nuja outside the r vai ava community ignored the variations of the hagiographical delineations and presented a seamless account of R m nuja's life, often overlooking the fact that the image of an individual is usually a result of accretions of motifs in history. Emphasizing the dialogic interaction between the hagiographies and biographies, this study argues that the hagiographies and biographies cannot always be understood within the binaries of the sacred and the secular.
