1. The Example in Dadupanthi Homiletics

  • Monika Horstmann (author)
Chapter of: Tellings and Texts: Music, Literature and Performance in North India(pp. 31–60)
Monika Horstmann, a senior scholar in old Hindi text studies, digs deep into Rajasthani Dadupanthi sources to give us a picture of how long sectarian sermons have been built around a founding saint’s pithy verses. Among other points, she draws attention to the ways in which preachers give the verses’ potentially universal metaphors some local references.
