In South Asia, the period between 1100 and 1300 CE was a particularly prolific time for theorists from India’s three main indigenous religions – Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism – to articulate their views on the face-to-face gift encounter. Their gift theories shaped a cosmopolitan sensibility that shared ethical and aesthetic values that reached across regional, sectarian, and religious boundaries. This book explores the ethical and social implications of unilateral gifts of esteem, offering a perceptive guide to the uniquely South Asian contributors to theoretical work on the gift.
