Hindu and Christian in South-East India (eBook, PDF)

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

First Published in 1995. The purpose of this study is to examine religious institutions, trends and developments in two adjoining districts - thereby adopting a level of focus which falls somewhere between these two extremes of the broadly-based overview and the detailed localized investigation of single religious establishments or movements. It has also provided scope for comparison and a degree of generalization.
