> Twenty years ago, yoga was largely understood as a monolithic and

> Preference will be given to papers that foreground the potential of visual

> welcome proposals that examine yogic constructs (e.g. embodiment, guru,
> philosophical traditions); illuminate social roles and perceptions of
> yogis (e.g. militant ascetics); interrogate text-driven or
> anthropologically-based perspectives on yoga, or provide new insights into
> regional, tran-sectarian, or chronological transformations.

> Scholars from all disciplines are encouraged to submit proposals for

Bagali – A Town in Oblivion

Posted: 21 Dec 2012 10:36 AM PST

Bagali – It would be hard to explain and understand that how a village, which remained a center of attraction almost for about six centuries, lost its glory and went into oblivion. Bagali narrates its story in about forty-five odd inscriptions spanning across six centuries and four great dynasties, though at present it has been reduced to a small village. The earliest inscription found here is of the early ninth century CE pertaining to the times of the Rashtrakutas. Later inscriptions are of the Chalukyas of Kalyana, Hoysalas and Vijayanagara rulers. Bagali is referred as Balaguli in inscriptions. Though most...

> This conference aims to investigate the ways in which visual research

> scholars of visual (digital) culture, film and visual anthropology when
> incorporating representations of South Asian history within the framework
> of traditional historical scholarship. Also, the role of interdisciplinary
> research in terms of producing, distributing, re-interpreting and

> throughout several roundtable discussions.

> The conference will create for the first time the opportunity to
> strengthen the network of historians, anthropologists, visual and digital
> scholars and artists concerned with the re-examination of modern South
> Asian history across visual records. It proposes four themes of
> investigation that will support new scholarly developments:
>
> ▪ digital humanities and issues of South Asian history, visuality
> and ethnographic enquiry
> ▪ theories of visual anthropology relevant to historiographical
> research of South Asia
> ▪ examples of historical scholarship strengthened by visual research
> methodologies
> ▪ historical and anthropological practices replicated in visual
> artwork inspired by South Asian history
>
> Keynote addresses will be delivered by Professor Marcus Banks (University
> of Oxford) and by Professor Christopher Pinney (University College
> London). Papers, panels and roundtable discussions led by international
> scholars such as Professor Denis Vidal (École des Hautes Études en
> Sciences Sociales, Paris), Dr Clare Harris (University of Oxford) and
> Professor Ravi Vasudevan (CSDS, Delhi) will explore new perspectives on
> visual research methods and modern South Asian history. Also, there will
