520 | _aWinner of the prestigious G.S. Ghurye Award (1977), Structure and Cognition is an essential reading in the sociological analysis of Hindu myth, ritual, and society. The author departs from conventional empirical studies of local communities. She bridges the gulf between Indology and Sociology by basing her data on an examination of myths in Puranic and Sutra literature. Including a new introduction from the author, this Oxford India Perennials edition underlines the continuing importance of the book for contemporary research in sociology and anthropology since it was first published in 1977. | ||
