Former students and other experts influenced by his scholarship here offer papers that contribute significantly to our understanding of the cultural, religious, and intellectual histories of premodern South and Southeast Asia.
Academic study of the tantric traditions has blossomed in recent decades, in no small measure thanks to the magisterial contributions of Alexis G.J.S. Sanderson, until 2015 Spalding Professor of Eastern Religions and Ethics at Oxford University. This collection of essays honours him and touches several fields of Indology that he has helped to shape (or, in the case of Saivism, revolutionised): the history, ritual, and philosophies of tantric Buddhism, Saivism and Vaisavism; religious art and architecture; and Sanskrit belles lettres.

Dominic Goodall studied under Alexis Sanderson at Oxford (doctorate 1996), joined the École Française d'Extrême-Orient (2000), and is now head of its Pondicherry Centre. Shaman Hatley studied under Harunaga Isaacson at the University of Pennsylvania (doctorate 2007), taught at Concordia University until 2015, and is now Associate Professor at the University of Massachusetts Boston. Harunaga Isaacson, Ph.D. in Sanskrit (University of Leiden, 1995), was a postdoctoral fellow at Oxford University (1995–2000), and held positions at Hamburg University and the University of Pennsylvania. Srilata Raman completed her M.Phil. at Oxford under the supervision of Alexis Sanderson in 1988. She is currently an Associate Professor of Hinduism at the University of Toronto and specializes in the textual history of Tamil religion in both its Sanskrit and Tamil iterations
