Christian communities in the state Andhra Pradesh of south India
and the Telugu Christians in diaspora have passed their stories
from one generation to the next by oral traditions as well as in
scattered texts. These memories have sustained Telugu Christian
communities for over four centuries. Yet there has been no
significant attempt made to compile a comprehensive history of the
Telugu Christians until James Elisha Taneti's History of the Telugu
Christians: A Bibliography. This annotated bibliography lists more
than 700 published and unpublished textual sources related to the
history of Telugu Christians from south India. Opening a window
into the histories of 15 mission societies from the North American
region, History of the Telugu Christians lists monographs, journal
articles, letters, reports, minutes and the proceedings of
missionary conferences, unpublished theses, dissertations,
souvenirs, and manuscripts. The documents selected by Taneti were
written or printed in the English or Telugu languages by native
Christians and western missionaries. Aimed to facilitate research
and writing on Telugu Christians, Taneti's insightful
historiographical analysis and comprehensive list of bibliographic
sources offer seminarians, historians of Christianity, and scholars
of India the opportunity to study closely the meeting of East and
West and the religious history of India through the founding and
evolution of this community.
