Tamara I. Sears is assistant professor of South Asian art and architectural history at Yale University.
“An excellent, original, and valuable work of scholarship at the
cutting edge of its field. Worldly Gurus and Spiritual Kings will
make an immense and worthy contribution to the study of Indian
architecture in the pre-modern period. Sears is remarkably wide in
her scholarship and approach, and the significance of this work
reaches well beyond her immediate field to speak also to religious
studies and cultural history.”—Richard H. Davis, Bard College

“A very important book. Tamara Sears offers a strong and
sophisticated argument for alternate bases of religious authority
grounded in exceptionally diligent primary fieldwork. Worldly Gurus
and Spiritual Kings will unquestionably make its mark in the
reshaping of the field of South Asian art.”—Pika Ghosh, University
of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
