Reviews

“Ramos’ book is a compelling read and an important contribution to our larger understanding of the complex intersections between religion, politics, sacred space, pilgrimage, and national identity. … [This] is an important book that should be of genuine interest to anyone interested in the study of pilgrimage, sacred space, religious nationalism, and modern Indian history.” --Journal of South Asian Studies “Ramos weaves a narrative from the threads of traditional religious practices, shrines, visual culture, and politics into a whole cloth that gives us a better sense of the Bengali imagination undergoing its transformations of modernity in its distinctive way. Highly recommended.” --Bulletin of the School of Oriental and African Studies “This is a fascinating and well-crafted study that dwells substantially in the concrete rather than in the theoretical or the historiographical. … Historians of Indian nationalism, art historians, and scholars of South Asian religion will all learn much from this valuable work.” --International Journal of Hindu Studies
