What roles do ‘hierarchy’ and ‘egality’, as values and practices, play in the everyday lives of South Asian traditions? Hierarchy as a value in the social life of Hinduism has been much discussed. Scholarship has tended to contrast a transhistorical Hindu hierarchy with egalitarian elements of Muslim, Christian, Buddhist and Sikh thought in South Asia, framing ubiquitous caste-like social forms among the latter traditions as anomalous. Yet careful studies of everyday life in the religious traditions of South Asia suggest that a far more heterogeneous set of social imaginaries and a far more complex entanglement of hierarchy and egality are, in fact, shaping the trajectory of both inter-caste and inter-religious relations and practices.

Frank Lloyd Wright began wintering in the Sonoran Desert in the late 1920s, where the region’s extreme climate and tectonic landscape shaped by sun, erosion, and wind profoundly influenced his thinking about architecture. How did Wright respond to the beautiful yet hostile desert environment?

“There is more savagery, more brutality, in the pages of Wuthering Heights than in any novel of the nineteenth century, and, for good measure, more beauty too, more poetry, and, what is more unusual, a complete lack of sexual emotion…” Daphne du Maurier.

Impregnable: Mediated Meanings of the Body in Resistance

Impregnability has many strong meanings - not becoming pregnant but also capable of withstanding assault. It's a term that lives in connotative alignment with infertility, of non- and un-reproducibility, but it also carries presence over absence, power over victimization. Think protesters who link arms to create an impregnable wall of resistance. Think castles that cannot be stormed. Indeed, the word literally means “unable to be defeated or destroyed; unassailable.”
