"The books line up on my shelf like bright Bodhisattvas ready to take tough questions or keep quiet company. They stake out a vast territory, with works from two millennia in multiple genres: aphorism, lyric, epic, theater, and romance." -Willis G. Regier, 'The Chronicle Review'"No effort has been spared to make these little volumes as attractive as possible to readers: the paper is of high quality, the typesetting immaculate. The founders of the series are John and Jennifer Clay, and Sanskritists can only thank them for an initiative intended to make the classics of an ancient Indian language accessible to a modern international audience." -'The Times Higher Education Supplement'"The Clay Sanskrit Library represents one of the most admirable publishing projects now afoot. . . . Anyone who loves the look and feel and heft of books will delight in these elegant little volumes." -'New Criterion'"Published in the geek-chic format." -'BookForum'"Very few collections of Sanskrit deep enough for research are housed anywhere in North America. Now, twenty-five hundred years after the death of Shakyamuni Buddha, the ambitious Clay Sanskrit Library may remedy this state of affairs." -'Tricycle'Now an ambitious new publishing project, the Clay Sanskrit Library brings together leading Sanskrit translators and scholars of Indology from around the world to celebrate in translating the beauty and range of classical Sanskrit literature. . . . Published as smart green hardbacks that are small enough to fit into a jeans pocket, the volumes are meant to satisfy both the scholar and the lay reader. Each volume has a transliteration of the original Sanskrit text on the left-hand page and an English translation on the right, as also a helpful introduction and notes.

Les contributions à ce volume répondent à la nécessité d’une réflexion sociologique sur la dimension, sous-estimée, des multiples voies de salut, courants ascétiques ou dévotionnels et « sectes », qui traversent la société indienne des castes. Elles sont autant d’interrogations sur la signification et les modalités de ce qu’est le » salut » dans la fabrique sociale indienne quant à la problématique sous-jacente exemplifiant la proposition banale qu’aucune société n ’existe, idéalement et pratiquement, en dehors des contradictions logiques et morales qui la fondent. Si bien que ces dernières relèvent, en définitive, de la ruse de la raison, ou plutôt des ruses du salut - l’idée du salut en tant qu’éthique universelle ne se définissant que dans la maîtrise toujours particulière et historique de ce monde et selon de multiples équilibres aléatoires qui peuvent tendre à confondre le ciel et la terre. Le présent, qui met en exergue la confusion parfois dramatique du religieux et du politique, est l’héritier de cette histoire des mentalités — de la jubilation des idées autant que des conflits — au cours de laquelle une civilisation, entre d’autres, a joué et joue son destin en misant à la fois sur la singularité et l’universel.
