Critically examine the indological approach to the study of indian society.
Hello Aspirant,
Indology or Indian studies is the academic study of the history and cultures, languages, and literature of India and as such is a subset of Asian studies. In the Netherlands the term Indologie was used to designate the study of Indian history and culture in preparation for colonial service in the Dutch East Indies.
Indology is both an approach to study the Indian Society and also an independent discipline with Indian Society as subject matter. In both the form Indology consists of studying language, beliefs, ideas, customs, taboos, codes, institutions, rituals, ceremonies and other related components of culture.
