要旨:”Historical Dictionary of Indian Inscriptions” would be a presentation of the project of the Indian Council of Historical Research (ICHR) entitled “Dictionary of Social, Economic and
Administrative Terms Indian Inscriptions”. The Dictionary was planned in 1989 and launched on January 01, 1990. After four years’ work of some data collection, it was stopped in January 1994 and remained suspended for more than twelve years till its resumption in late 2006. The Dictionary is based on historical principles and is largely modelled on the Oxford English Dictionary. It aims to marshall data from inscriptions up to c.1800 CE except those in post-1500 CE European languages.
Three units of the Project comprise of inscriptions in (a) Dravidian languages, (b) Sanskrit, Prakrit and other non-Dravidian languages, viz., proto-modern Indian languages, and (c) Arabic and Persian.
The first volume of (a) has already been published. My own focus would be on (b) and shall be detailing the processes of data collection, their computerization and historical
implications
2. The Making of Religious Identities in India

コメンテーター:馬場紀寿(東京大学東洋文化研究所)
要旨:”The Making of Religious Identities in India” will undertake formation of these identities over a period of nearly four millennia. Its focus will be on (a) people in different parts of India
were known through several identities simultaneously, and (b) even when some religious identities are discernible, they never constituted any homogenous or monolithic identity.
Plurality was the hallmark of such identities all through the long history of the sub-continent. More recent attempts in the last three decades to homogenise and create a monolithic ‘Hindu’ identity and its equation with ‘Nation’ is seen as an ahistorical exercise and quite dangerous for the ‘Idea of Indias’ that rests on poly-religious, multi-cultural, multi-ethnic and multi-linguistic identities.
