In Writing Tamil Catholicism: Literature, Persuasion and Devotion
in the Eighteenth Century, Margherita Trento explores the process
by which the Jesuit missionary Costanzo Giuseppe Beschi
(1680-1747), in collaboration with a group of local lay elites
identified by their profession as catechists, chose Tamil poetry as
the social and political language of Catholicism in
eighteenth-century South India. Trento analyzes a corpus of Tamil
grammars and poems, chiefly Beschi's Tempavani, alongside archival
documents to show how, by presenting themselves as poets and
intellectuals, Catholic elites gained a persuasive voice as well as
entrance into the learned society of the Tamil country and its
networks of patronage. This project has received funding from the
European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme
under the Marie Sklodowska-Curie grant agreement No 840879.
