Descrizione
About The Book: Dravidian Gods in Modern Hinduism by Wilber Theodore Elmore (1871–1935) explores the integration of local and village deities of Southern India into broader Hindu practices. The study examines how indigenous Dravidian beliefs and deities coexist with, and influence, mainstream Hinduism. Elmore’s work highlights the syncretic nature of South Indian religious traditions, offering valuable insight into folk worship, ritual practices, and cultural identity. It remains an important resource for understanding the diversity and evolution of Hinduism in the southern regions of India.
