Characteristics and contents of the series: The series Studies on the History of Śaivism publishes primary sources and monographic studies exploring various aspects of the social and doctrinal history of Śaivism, from its origins to the present day. This fully open-access, peer-reviewed series is hosted by L’Orientale University of Naples, Dipartimento Asia, Africa e Mediterraneo, and funded by the ERC Starting Grant Project Shivadharma (Translocal Identities: The Śivadharma and the Making of Regional Religious Traditions in Premodern South Asia) and the ERC Synergy Grant Project Dharma (The Domestication of Hindu Asceticism and the Religious Making of South and South-East Asia).

This is a new, fully open access, Indological monograph series launched at the University of Naples L’Orientale, Dipartimento Asia, Africa e Mediterraneo, and it was primarily conceived to publish the results of two research projects hosted at this university and financed by the European Research Council: the shivadharma project (Translocal Identities. The Śivadharma and the Making of Regional Religious Traditions in Premodern South Asia, GA no. 803624); and the dharma project (The Domestication of Hindu Asceticism and the Religious Making of South and South-East Asia, GA no. 809994). At the same time, we would like this series to present publications from our wider research network, thus being an instrument to disseminate knowledge, as well as to strengthen and create connections among scholars.
