Hardbound. Condition: As New. New. This book deals with the Dalits and the Christian Missionaries from various denominations who worked in different areas of Andhra. Among the Christians in Andhra Pradesh according to one estimate 98% belong to the Dalit communities. The status of Dalits in India has been documented in many well known anthropological works highlighting the lowliest of lowly status in Indian society with the unique associated dimension of the practice of untouchability. The introductory chapter deals with the traditional characteristic features of the caste system and the position of Dalits within it. Much of the data related to Dalits was taken from my doctoral thesis submitted to Andhra University in the late seventies. The ethnographic details of the two dominant Dalit castes of Andhra the Mala and the Madiga and their origins according to different legends have been described in the following chapters together with the influence of Christianity on them tracing the history of different Christian Missionaries from various denominations who worked in this area. The failures of the Christian Missionaries with the high castes and the reasons there of are vividly described. The efforts of the Lutheran Missionaries ever since the arrival of Fr. Heyer has been elaborately dealt with and the long list of Missionaries arrived from foreign lands has been given in the appendix. Towards the end an attempt is made to trace the evolution of a Dalit theology which is distinctly a part of the Asian contextual theology. This book would be of interest to anthropologists sociologists and other social scientists who are interested particularly in the study of Dalit matters and the proselatization activities of Christian Missionaries. The impact of Christianity on the lives of the Dalits could be gauged through the pages of this book.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Mala masti is a satellite dalit community that traditionally depends on the central Mala caste for its survival and sustenance. It is surprising to notice the paucity of works on such satellite-dependent castes in the Indian caste system. While the system itself is founded on structured inequalities drawn in to hierarchized and stratified arrangement, interestingly, the castes at the bottom too exhibit such a hierarchy. These satellite dalit communities are insulted, abused with derogatory terms by the central castes that are themselves much discriminated, and excluded from the mainstream. Such a situation generated much confusion as to their position in the caste hierarchy, bringing into focus mutual claims and counterclaims for superior position. This study brings to light the fact that the ambiguous position of these dalit satellite castes keeps the entire system intact without being critically questioned by those at the bottom, as they are always at loggerheads with other castes at the bottom for a claim of superiority. In this background examination of the position of Mala masti, vis-à-vis the central Mala caste and others in the system, would certainly bring out facts that are not given full focus in the earlier studies.…
