In this work of impressive scholarship, Sheldon Pollock explores the remarkable rise and fall of Sanskrit, India's ancient language, as a vehicle of poetry and polity. He traces the two great moments of its transformation: the first around the beginning of the Common Era, when Sanskrit, long a sacred language, was reinvented as a code for literary and political expression, the start of an amazing career that saw Sanskrit literary culture spread from Afghanistan to Java. The second moment occurred around the beginning of the second millennium, when local speech forms challenged and eventually replaced Sanskrit in both the literary and political arenas.Drawing striking parallels, chronologically as well as structurally, with the rise of Latin literature and the Roman empire, and with the new vernacular literatures and nation-states of late-medieval Europe, "The Language of the Gods in the World of Men" asks whether these very different histories challenge current theories of culture and power and suggest new possibilities for practice.

写Sanskrit的历史,关注两个时期,一是Sanskrit横跨南亚/东南亚区域形成cosmopolis的年代,二是the second millennium中vernacularization逐渐兴起的时期;“长时期、广区域、大比较(和欧洲Latin比较)”的重量级作品。感觉路子比较韦伯,着重思考语言文化和政治社会权力组织的关系,也思考人在其中的agency。

买了3年多 终于想起来读。正如Samyak当年说的一样,Pollock的magnum opus是没人有能力/资格review的。不过后半部分讲vernacularization确实de-emphasize了Tamil语料的重要性(原因有二:一是他不会读,Dravidian里他只会Telugu和Kannada; 二是跟前半部分的理论框架向冲突)。有趣的是:很多欧洲学者常将Sanderson的Śaiva Age和Pollock的Cosmopolis理论作对比,但美国学者却很少或不提Sanderson了。
