Sinopsis
Ganesa by Alice Getty is a seminal work that delves into the mythology, iconography, and religious significance of the Hindu deity Ganesa. Ganesa, the elephant-headed god of wisdom, prosperity, and remover of obstacles, is one of the most widely worshipped deities in the Hindu pantheon. Getty’s book examines the origins of Ganesa’s iconography, tracing his evolution in Hindu religious texts and art, from early depictions to his widespread prominence in later periods. Getty explores the rich symbolism behind Ganesa’s various attributes, such as his elephant head, large ears, and broken tusk, while offering insights into his role in Hindu rituals and festivals, particularly during Ganesh Chaturthi. The book also addresses the ways in which Ganesa’s image has transcended religious boundaries, influencing not just Hinduism but also art, culture, and popular imagination globally. Through her detailed analysis, Getty contributes significantly to understanding Ganesa as both a deity and a cultural icon, highlighting his enduring appeal and universal relevance.
