William L. Gibson

Keramat, Sacred Relics and Forbidden Idols in Singapore (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This book critically examines the often-tense relationship between keramat and authority, both secular and religious, from colonial to modern times.

A vital resource for scholars, this work contributes to a people's history of Singapore, one that both deepens and problematizes official historical accounts.
