Paperback. Condition: New. Language: English. The aim in writing this work has been to present an accurate and fairly complete account of the Chamars. The basis of this work has been the Chamars of the United Provinces, but the Chamars and the leatherworkers of other parts of India as well have been noted. The writings of Ibbetson, Crooke, Rose, Russell and others have been made use of, and Census Reports, both Imperial and Provincial, have been examined. Similarly, materials from the works of anthropology, ethnology, and animism have been made the basis of investigation. Men of many subcastes and of all sorts, living in villages and towns, have been interrogated, such as farmers, tanners, shoemakers, wizards, gurus, and servants. The single aim has been in all cases to record the Charmar point of view. The Charmars of the northwest have been influenced by the superstitions of Punjab, while those to the east reflect the peculiar beliefs of the Vindhyas. George Weston Briggs was born in North Branch, Lapeer, Michigan, USAon21 Sep 1874 to Emily Electa Weston. He married Annie Mable Montgomery and had 5 children. Briggs belonged to that generation of British Orientalists of colonized India, who first studied and recorded Indian culture systematically. The White Man's prejudice notwithstanding, these Orientalists helped the cause of Indic studies with their inscrutable scientific method. Briggs was a U.S. missionary and Indologist. He was educated at Northwestern University and was ordained as priest in 1904. He was a methodist missionary and later, a Professor of English Literature at Reid Christian College in India. In 191214, he was an Associate Professor of Mathematics at Col. Pacific. After returning last time from India,in 1925 he became a Professor of Sanskrit language and literature at Drew University's Theological School.In 1929, he was a Professor of History of Religions at Drew University, Madison.
