India's Jewish Heritage Ritual, Art and Life-Cycle

This book celebrates the cultural legacy of India's Jewish communities: the Bene Israel of Maharashtra, the Cochin Jews of the Malabar coast, and the Baghdadi Jews who migrated to Bombay and Calcutta. The literature on Indian Jews, though considerable, has so far concentrated on their history and anthropology. This volume, in explorin g their heritage and examining their contribution to India, fills an important gap. The writers, most of them Indian Jews, have researched different aspects of this fascinating subject.Weil, Shalva is the author of 'India's Jewish Heritage Ritual, Art and Life-Cycle' with ISBN 9788185026589 and ISBN 8185026580.
