Description

Explore the changing landscape of modern religious practice with this academic study from the Routledge South Asian Religion Series. This book examines the transformations within popular Hinduism through the lens of Ramkatha, the staged narratives of the Ramcharitmanas. By focusing on the sensory and media experiences of these performances, the author provides a deep look into the aesthetics and dynamics of the Ramkatha ethnoscape. Through participant-observation of everyday practices, the text investigates how these religious stories translate politics from the realm of religion. This work is essential for those interested in how technology assists in the production and continuation of religious storytelling. It offers a detailed analysis of how Morari Bapu's voice reaches audiences across multiple media platforms, making it a valuable resource for students and scholars of anthropology, sociology, and South Asian religious studies.
