In this volume Chad Bauman considers one such cultural context -- colonial Chhattisgarh in north central India.In his study Bauman focuses on the interaction of three groups: Hindus from the low-caste Satnami community, Satnami converts to Christianity, and the American missionaries who worked with them. Informed by archival snooping and ethnographic fieldwork, the book reveals the emergence of a unique Satnami-Christian identity. As Bauman shows, preexisting structures of thought, belief, behavior, and more altered this emerging identity in significant ways, thereby creating a distinct regional Christianity.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50311412711697,"sku":"CIN0802862764A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":51007499534609,"sku":"NIN9780802862761","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52142670709009,"sku":"NLS9780802862761","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0802862764.jpg?v=1751233029"},{"product_id":"routledge-handbook-of-hindu-christian-relations-book-chad-m-bauman-9780367689742","title":"The Routledge Handbook of Hindu-Christian Relations","description":"The historical interplay of Hinduism as an ancient Indian religion and Christianity as a religion associated (in India, at least) with foreign power and colonialism, continues to animate Hindu–Christian relations today. On the one hand, The Routledge Handbook of Hindu–Christian Relations describes a rich history of amicable, productive, even sometimes syncretic Hindu–Christian encounters. On the other, this handbook equally attends to historical and contemporary moments of tension, conflict, and violence between Hindus and Christians. Comprising thirty-nine chapters by a team of international contributors, this handbook is divided into seven parts:         Theoretical and methodological considerations      Historical interactions      Contemporary exchanges      Sites of bodily and material interactions      Significant figures      Comparative theologies      Responses  The handbook explores: how the study of Hindu–Christian relations has been and ought to be done, the history of Hindu–Christian relations through key interactions, ethnographic reflections on current dynamics of Hindu–Christian exchange, important key thinkers, and topics in comparative theology, ultimately providing a framework for further debates in the area.   The Routledge Handbook of Hindu-Christian Relations is essential reading for students and researchers in Hindu–Christian studies, Hindu traditions, Asian religions, and studies in Christianity. This handbook will also be very useful for those in related fields, such as anthropology, political science, theology, and history.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50698410066193,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":50698412097809,"sku":"NGR9780367689742","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52484115628305,"sku":"NLS9780367689742","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/036768974X.jpg?v=1751260023"},{"product_id":"pentecostals-proselytization-and-anti-christian-violence-in-contemporary-india-book-chad-m-bauman-9780190202101","title":"Pentecostals, Proselytization, and Anti-Christian Violence in Contemporary India","description":"Every year, there are several hundred attacks on India's Christians. These attacks are carried out by violent anti-minority activists, many of them provoked by what they perceive to be Christians' propensity for aggressive proselytization, and\/or by rumored or real conversions to the faith. In this violence, Pentecostal Christians are disproportionately targeted.  Bauman finds that the violence against Pentecostals and Pentecostalized Evangelicals in India is not just a matter of current social, cultural, political, and interreligious dynamics internal to India, but is rather related to identifiable historical trends, as well as to historical and contemporary transnational flows of people, power, and ideas. Based on extensive interviews and ethnographic work, and drawing upon the vast scholarly literature on interreligious violence, Hindu nationalism, and Christianity in India, this volume accounts for this disproportionate targeting through a detailed analysis of Indian Christian history, contemporary Indian politics, Indian social and cultural characteristics, and Pentecostal belief and practice.  While some of the factors in the targeting of Pentecostals are obvious and expected (e.g., their relatively greater evangelical assertiveness), other significant factors are less acknowledged and more surprising, among them the marginalization of Pentecostals by \"mainstream\" Christians, the social location of Pentecostal Christians, and transnational flows of missionary personnel, theories, and funds.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50999595991313,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":50999598416145,"sku":"NIN9780190202101","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52402675745041,"sku":"NLS9780190202101","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":53247061786897,"sku":"CIN0190202106G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0190202106.jpg?v=1772275000"},{"product_id":"pentecostals-proselytization-and-anti-christian-violence-in-contemporary-india-book-chad-m-bauman-9780190202095","title":"Pentecostals, Proselytization, and Anti-Christian Violence in Contemporary India","description":"In contemporary violence against India's Christians, Pentecostals are disproportionately targeted.
