India and the Indianness of Christianity

Essays on Understanding--Historical, Theological, and Bibliographical--In Honor of Robert Eric Frykenberg

Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Honoring historian Robert Eric Frykenberg, the essays in this collection avoid the pitfall of Eurocentric, "top down" historiographies and instead adopt and adapt Frykenberg's own Indocentric, "bottom up" approach, thus accentuating indigenous agency in the emergence of Christianity as an Indian religion. / Contributors: Peter B.
