Description of the Character, Manner, and Customs of the People of India; and of Their Institutions, Religious and Civil

Author: Dubois, J.A.

Keywords: Religion, Manners, Customs, Indian religion, Brahmans, Indian society

Publisher: Longman, London

Description: This is the English translation of a French manuscript that deals with the society of India. The author had long-term contacts with Indians and Europeans but held very little authentic information about them. He hoped this volume would provide lots of information and be useful to any author who takes a more methodical study of Indians. The first part gives a general view of the society of India, the second describes the four stages of the Brahman, and the third part deals with the religions of India.
