| Abstract | Basava or Basavaṇṇa (c. 1105-68) is the most revered poet-saint of the Liṅgāyats, the largest single religious community in the state of Karnataka in South India. Writers in the Kannada language have long used Basava's life as a focus for their work. This paper considers one such work-Taledaṇḍa, a recent play by Girish Karnad-within the context of the available historical and hagiographical material on the period and with reference to the religious and socio-political tensions of contemporary India. |
