An analysis of the Tamil language songs of Satakopan in the 9th century and the commentaries by teachers in the 12th to 14th century Hindu tradition, combined with a considerate appraisal of comparative theology at the end of the 20th century. And though that description of the volume is accurate it does not convey the fascinating meditation on which Clooney embarks in the process of his writing; that is, what does an American, Roman Catholic priest have in common with the ecstatic poetry of India's 9th century. The journey to discovery is as interesting as the fine scholarship. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or. Examines texts and commentaries in the Tamil-language SArivastradition of South India; about the general issues of text, vision, and narrative that such texts raise, and about the implications of these for a particular style of comparative theology.
