Abstract |
This chapter will present an overview of the various kinds of animal presences in these Jain universal histories, literally, in the encounters between śalākāpuruṣas and animals, and figuratively, in the symbolic value of certain animal occurrences, and will conclude with an excursus on animal sacrifice. |
