REICH, J. D., To Savor the Meaning. The Theology of Literary Emotions in Medieval Kashmir. Oxford University Press, 2021. 296p. Hardback. Series: South Asia Research. To Savor the Meaning offers a fascinating look into the merger of aesthetics and theology in Indian thought. Reich insightfully explores how Abhinavagupta analyzed the response to a poem as akin to God's self-reflection, what might have led to this view, and how it was later criticized, all in the context of the rich, multi-religious debates of Kashmir between the ninth and the twelfth centuries.
