      ab: The article discusses recent scholarly works that explore various aspects of Hindu literature, art, and social dynamics in South Asia. It highlights Steven E. Lindquist's "The Literary Life of Yājñavalkya," which examines the character of the Brahmin sage Yājñavalkya across different texts, emphasizing his evolving portrayal in relation to gender and authority. Sohini Sarah Pillai's "Krishna's Mahabharatas" investigates regional retellings of the Mahabharata, focusing on the character of Krishna and how these narratives reflect local devotional practices. Additionally, Divya Cherian's "Merchants of Virtue" analyzes the socio-economic transformations in 18th-century Marwar, emphasizing the role of merchants in shaping caste identities and ethical frameworks. Anna Lise Seastrand's "Body, History, Myth" examines early modern temple murals in South India, arguing that they serve as a fusion of historical and mythic narratives, reflecting the interplay of devotion and social dynamics. Each work contributes to a deeper understanding of the complexities within Hindu traditions and their historical contexts.
