Altman, Michael J. (Assistant Professor of Religious Studies, Assistant Professor of Religious Studies, University of Alabama)

Heathen, Hindoo, Hindu

American Representations of India, 1721-1893

Buch

Heathen, Hindoo, Hindu is a groundbreaking analysis of American representations of religion in India before the turn of the twentieth century. Before Americans wrote about Hinduism, they wrote about heathenism, the religion of the Hindoos, and Brahmanism. Americans used the heathen, Hindoo, and Hindu as an other against which they represented themselves. The questions of American identity, classification, representation and the definition ofreligion that animated descriptions of heathens, Hindoos, and Hindus in the past still animate American debates today.
