Was Hinduism Invented?: Britons, Indians, and the Colonial Construction of Religion
Pennington, Brian K. (Assistant Professor of Religion, Department of Humanities, Assistant Professor of Religion, Department of Humanities, Maryville College)
Drawing on a body of literature, including documents from the Church Missionary Society and Bengali newspapers, this book offers a portrait of the process by which Hinduism came into being. It argues against the common idea that the modern construction of religion in colonial India was simply a fabrication of Western Orientalists and missionaries.
