Reviews

This book ingeniously demonstrates prolific scholar Appaya Dīkṣita's vital contribution to the history of Śaivism. It is an essential and excellent read for all scholars of Hindu religion. * Alisha Saikia, University of Vienna, Religious Studies Review * Appayya Dīkṣita is a famously complex intellectual figure, yet Jonathan Duquette's monograph outlining his vast Śivādvaita oeuvre grants us a clearer and more nuanced picture of his religiosity and intellect. It is a portrait of one of South Asia's seminal thinkers and makes a significant contribution to the study of the history of Hindu philosophy and theology while also raising fascinating questions for future scholarship. * Matthew Leveille, Reading Religion *
