- Summary:
- "The tension between the two historical realities, Hinduism as an ancient Indian religion and Christianity as a religion associated with foreign power and colonialism, continues to animate Hindu-Christian relations today. On the one hand, The Routledge Handbook of Hindu-Christian Relations describes a rich history of amicable, productive, even sometimes syncretic Hindu-Christian encounters. On the other, this handbook equally attends to historical and contemporary moments of tension, conflict, and violence between Hindus and Christians. Comprising thirty-nine chapters by a team of international contributors, this handbook is divided into 7 parts:
- Contents:
- Theoretical and Methodological Considerations
- Historical Interactions
- Contemporary Exchanges: Conversion, Caste, and the Diaspora
- Sites of Bodily and Material Interactions
- Significant Figures
- Comparative Theologies
- Responses.
- Notes:
- Includes bibliographical references and index.
