This volume explores the effects of the religious transformation
taking place in India as sacred symbols assume the shapes of media
images. Lifted from their traditional forms and contexts, many
religious symbols, beliefs, and practices are increasingly
refracted through such media as god posters, comic books, audio
recordings, and video programs. The ten original essays here
examine the impact on India's traditional social and cultural
structures of printed images, audio recordings, film, and
video.Contributors Lawrence A. Babb, Steve Derne, John Stratton
Hawley, Stephen R. Inglis, John T. Little, Philip Lutgendorf, Scott
L. Marcus, Frances W. Pritchett, Regula Burckhardt Qureshi, H.
Daniel Smith, and Susan S. Wadley.
