'Con How the Brahmins Won si chiude, forse, il discorso iniziato con la pubblicazione di Greater Magadha, eppure ancora tante sono le finestre appena schiuse, soprattutto quando si cerca di mettere in dialogo fonti sanscrite, pracrite, greche e cinesi. Certamente, questi tre volumi tutti insieme danno un contributo irrinunciabile per cono 150 marianna ferrara scere le operazioni politiche e propagandistiche, le narrative e le retoriche, le storie individuali e collettive attraverso le quali i brahmani sono riusciti a imporre l'ideologia che ne ha preservato l'autorevolezza e l'autorita per secoli. E all'ombra di questa storia apparentemente a lieto fine per la classe brahmanica, tante altre ancora dovranno essere raccontate, non senza sorprese.' Marianna Ferrara, Historia Religionum 11 (2019)
