- catalog abstract ""Based on a close examination of the extant manuscripts and other early Sikh sources, Gurinder Singh Mann presents a detailed reconstruction of the making of the Adi Granth ("original book"), the primary Sikh scripture. In the process, he traces its origin, expansion, canonization, and place within the institutional development of the Sikh community. His findings on many key issues differ from the traditional Sikh position, as well as the hypotheses of other twentieth-century scholars. Mann's revised and expanded history of the text and institution of Sikh scripture will be of interest to scholars of Sikhism and comparative canon formation."--Jacket.".
