4 Preface Although the Sikh tradition has been practiced actively for about 550 years, sustained academic interest and study of Sikhism is a relatively recent development. For instance, one of the earliest academic journals dedicated to studying Sikhism, The Journal of Sikh Studies, began publication in February Half a decade later, the spreading international interest in Sikhism can be seen in its infancy in Sikh Studies: Comparative Perspectives on a Changing Tradition (Berkeley, 1979). This international interest coincided with a change in immigration policies in North America that enabled many Sikhs to migrate to places like California, Michigan, and British Columbia in growing numbers. As Sikhs were highly visible but a relatively unknown people, many early studies focused on the nature of Sikhism through two main questions: What is Sikhism? Who are the Sikhs? Almost 40 years after its international recognition as a field of study, Sikh Studies represents a rapidly growing discourse with a respectable number of scholarly publications occurring across many disciplines through books and journals on this subject. Introductory textbooks in religious studies routinely include Sikhism as a distinct religious tradition, and recent years have seen the creation of standalone textbook introductions to Sikhism. However, despite this monumental shift in the body of knowledge on the Sikh tradition, there remains a dearth of reference material that would facilitate informed interdisciplinary engagement with the central aspects of Sikhism. Encyclopedias of religion are nothing new; the Encyclopedia of Islam was first published between 1913 and 1936 following increased interest in Islam and Muslims during the nineteenth century. Coming after the initial growth in interest about Sikhism in the twentieth century, it is therefore fitting that a stand-alone encyclopedic resource be devoted to the Sikh tradition. This particular volume is not the first attempt to produce encyclopedic resources about the Sikh tradition. One of the earliest and important encyclopedic resources is Bhai Kahan Singh Nabha s Gurshabad Ratnakar: Mahan Kosh, first published in While Mahan Kosh continues to be one of the richest and valuable resources for learning about Sikh tradition, its lexicon, personalities, places, history, and artifacts, its accessibility is limited to those who know modern and classical Punjabi language. Another major encyclopedic work is the four-volume Encyclopedia of Sikhism published by Punjabi University, Patiala, in 1986 under the editorship of Professor Harbans Singh. This important work has helped to bring in-depth knowledge of Sikhs and Sikhism to an v
5 vi Preface English-speaking audience around a broad number of topics including a wealth of information regarding events, ideas, and personages central to Sikh history. Compared to these pioneering and monumental works, the present volume in its current form is more focussed upon entries that pertain to the conceptual frames and important thinkers needed to engage the Sikh tradition critically. The aim is meant to provide a critical resource to scholars interested in Sikh intellectual history and philosophy, not least because it comprises one section, albeit a distinct and important section, of a very different project, namely, the Encyclopedia of Indian Religions. In its current form, there are approximately 100 entries in this volume written by a wide range of scholars. The entries cover some of the most important topics necessary for understanding the nature of Sikhism. Unlike other encyclopedias, however, we have tried to incorporate more thematically oriented entries which collectively give the reader a better picture of the fluid and everchanging nature of contemporary Sikhism and its relations with the other societies and contexts. In this sense, our aim was, to some extent at least, to release this volume from a general limitation of the encyclopedia genre as a whole, which has been the tendency to fix its subject matter into a past time frame. Fortunately, in this endeavor we are aided by recent advancements in publishing technology which have allowed our publisher, Springer, to make use of digital technology that allows entries to be updated and published on a digital platform as opposed to being restricted to the printed book. Once the volume is published (both in print and static e-version), it is moved to the digital platform where it becomes available for updates and expansion. Needless to say, this helps to evolve not only the form but also the very concept of an encyclopedia in the sense that it can be periodically updated with newly commissioned articles that have not materialized in this current edition. Given that individual entries can also be updated online enabling more upto-date editions of the encyclopedia to be printed much sooner than was previously the case, the benefits to readers and contributing authors of this encyclopedia section are obvious to see. We therefore urge readers as well as our contributors to see this encyclopedia as the first stage in an interactive and evolving organic process of knowledge production, which may involve more contributors in years to come.

8 Assistant Editor Harjeet Singh Grewal recently completed his dissertation entitled Janamsākhī: Retracing Networks of Interpretation (2017), at the University of Michigan in the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures. Harjeet is interested in questions from the Philosophy of Language pertaining to meaning, reference, translation, and textuality. He grounds these in South Asian devotional traditions focussing especially upon Sikhism. His work critically engages devotionalism by interrogating contemporary ideas about devotional archives and notions of textual materiality. Harjeet s interests and writings extend to questions about postsecularism, critical religion, diaspora, and literature. xi
