Download or read book Christians and Public Life in Colonial South India 1863 1937 written by Chandra Mallampalli and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-07-31 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book tells the story of how Catholic and Protestant Indians have attempted to locate themselves within the evolving Indian nation. Ironically, British rule in India did not privilege Christians, but pushed them to the margins of a predominantly Hindu society. Drawing upon wide-ranging sources, the book first explains how the Indian judiciary's 'official knowledge' isolated Christians from Indian notions of family, caste and nation. It then describes how different varieties and classes of Christians adopted, resisted and reshaped both imperial and nationalist perceptions of their identity. Within a climate of rising communal tension in India, this study finds immediate relevance.

Download or read book A History of Telugu Dalit Literature written by Thummapudi Bharathi and published by Gyan Publishing House. This book was released on 2008 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This History of Telugu Dalit Literature is the first book of its kind in English. It mainly focuses on the Telugu Dalit Literature produced after 1980s. Dalit writers are earnestly desirous to remove the social exploitation and caste inequalities. They wish to falsify the view that literature leaves the world as it is. They wish to change the world. Through literature they are re-examining and redefining their place in Indian society. Dalit literature primarily focuses on fundamental human rights and human values. Energized by an aggressive expression Dalit Literature protests against the established unjust and graded social order and also rejects the religious and traditional hegemony. In Andhra Pradesh, the powerful Dalit Literature originated mainly from the atrocities on Dalits in Karamchedu (1985) and Tsunduru/ Chunduru (1991). The Dalit movements sprouted when the constitutional remedies failed and social democracy unrealized. This book, it is hoped, is particularly useful for all the non-Telugu scholars and students of literature in India and other countries. The brief biographical sketches of well known as well as lesser known writers are given due space. This work is also useful for comparative studies in subaltern literatures.

Download or read book Preaching Contextually written by Anuparthi John Prabhakar and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2016-10-06 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Preaching is the commission given by the great preacher Jesus Christ. It is urgent because it communicates the essential gospel meant for the salvation of the perishing humanity. God is universal and people are local. The universal God became local in Jesus Christ through his incarnation. The saving gospel of Jesus Christ is necessary to communicate contextually. The majority of Indian Christians come from Dalit background. The ongoing development of Dalit Theology is helping to make the gospel relevant and effective. But the homiletic methodology being adapted in the Indian context is mostly from the West. In this scenario, Preaching Contextually searches for relevant methodology for Indian Dalits. For this purpose, contents of some sample sermons were analyzed homiletically to assess its relevance and to present a feasible method as a Dalit Homiletic. Prof Dr Júlio Cézar Adam (Brazil) This is a book which contributes enormously to homiletic research and science, not only in the Indian context, but also for other contexts, mainly those permeated by social ills and injustices. It is a necessary book for those who study and do homiletics mainly in the context of vulnerability.

Download or read book Perspectives on Economic Development and Social Change written by Chinna Rao Yagati and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Professor K.S. Chalam is a economist, specializing in economics of education, political economy, public economics, and Dravidian studies. He is one of the few economists who has widely written about education and the disprivileged in India - an issue that has re-emerged and has been intensely debated in recent years. Chalam has pioneered some innovative ideas in his interdisciplinary studies when there were very few serious works drawing from India's history, economics, education, sociology, and related disciplines. This festschrift - in honor of Professor K.S. Chalam - examines four states of southern India. The book focuses on the history and socio-economic transformation of marginal communities or disprivileged groups - Dalits, tribes, and other occupational communities - and reflects on economic development and the process of social change. The essays in Perspectives on Economic Development and Social Change incorporate many of Chalam's cherished ideas.

Download or read book DALIT ISSUES AND CHALLENGES written by Thummapudi Bharathi and published by MJP Publisher. This book was released on 2019-06-06 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of research articles presented at different seminars/conferences. Some references therefore appear more than once as they claim contextual relevance. Hence they are retained. Some of the papers have been published in some journals and in edited books and the modified version is included in this volume. I thank the editors for permitting me to include them in this collection. Dalit has become a burning issue from the beginning of the 20th century, as its existence was mainly invisible so far. Its invisibility is due to the society’s refusal to admit it as social evil and moreover giving credibility for its divine origin. Thanks to the advancement of science and technology that made the people of the world to come closer. Philosophers introduced the ideas of liberty and equality that reached all the corners of the world. People have realized that freedom is above everything; Hence, they have decided to fight to break their chains of slavery/untouchability. The fight for their independence, individuality, identity, self-respect, economic independence is the story of Dalits, registered in this volume. It will not be fascinating or interesting but it helps the readers and researchers to understand the problem and become one with it, in the process of finding some reasonable and possible answers.
