A study examining the religious institutions, trends and developments in parts of South-east India during the 19th- and 20th-centuries, which focuses on the Tanjore and Trichonopoly districts. Hinduism and Christianity are seen as living traditions, not static forms of religious organization.
First Published in 1995. The purpose of this study is to examine religious institutions, trends and developments in two adjoining districts - thereby adopting a level of focus which falls somewhere between these two extremes of the broadly-based overview and the detailed localized investigation of single religious establishments or movements. It has also provided scope for comparison and a degree of generalization.
