| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Ananda Kentish Coomaraswamy (1877-1947) was a profound thinker
and prolific writer of the early twentieth century. By the end of his life,
Coomaraswamy was thoroughly versed in the scriptures, mythology,
doctrines and arts of many different cultures and traditions. He was an
astonishingly erudite scholar, a recondite thinker and a distinguished
linguist. He left an intellectual legacy that enriched a variety of
disciplines like geological studies, history and theory of art, linguistics
and philology, social theory, psychology, mythology, folklore, religion
and metaphysics. An arch critic of modernism, Coomaraswamy was a
versatile genius and a seminal influence. |
