Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book offers a fascinating and detailed portrait of Travancore, a small but richly diverse kingdom in South India. The author, who spent twenty-five years studying the region, blends personal observations with historical accounts, providing a rich tapestry of life in a land where ancient customs meet European influence. Travancore's unique blend of religions, from popular Hinduism and demon worship to Syrian Christianity and early European settlements, are explored in depth, highlighting the complexity of social interaction and the impact of these diverse beliefs on everyday life. The author details the caste system's rigid hierarchy, with the plight of the lowest castes providing a particularly stark contrast to the privileged lives of the upper classes, and delves into the complexities of female life under these restrictive social norms. Through his vivid descriptions of the landscape, from the lush backwaters to the towering Ghauts, the book illuminates the physical beauty of Travancore, offering readers a glimpse into the heart of a fascinating and unique culture. This book provides a window into the intricate world of Travancore, offering readers a deeper understanding of the social, religious, and political realities that shaped this intriguing and enduring region.
