Christians and Public Life in Colonial South India, 1863-1937

Contending with Marginality

More about the book

The narrative explores the complex identity struggles of Catholic and Protestant Indians within a predominantly Hindu society during British rule. It highlights how the Indian judiciary's official knowledge marginalized Christians from traditional concepts of family, caste, and nation. The book examines the diverse responses of Christians—adoption, resistance, and transformation—against imperial and nationalist viewpoints. In the context of increasing communal tensions, this study offers timely insights into the ongoing challenges of religious identity in India.
