Death in Banaras

1,295

This book is primaryly about the priests and other kinds of ‘sacred specialist’ who serve them:about the way in which they organise their business,and about their representations of death and understanding of the rituals  over which they preside.all three levels are informed by a common ideoligical preoccupation with controlling chaos and contingency.the anthro pologist  who writes about death inevitably writes about the world of the living,and Dr Parry is centrally concerned with concepts  of the body and the person in contemporary hinduism,with ideas about hierarchy,renunciation and sacrifice,and with the relationship between hierarchy and notions of complementarity and holism.
