audiobook Bhakti and Embodiment: Fashioning Divine Bodies and Devotional Bodies in Krsna Bhakti (Routledge Hindu Studies Series) by Barbara A. Holdrege in History

Description

Bringing together scholarly essays and helpfully annotated primary documents; African Americans and the Haitian Revolution collects not only the best recent scholarship on the subject; but also showcases the primary texts written by African Americans about the Haitian Revolution. Rather than being about the revolution itself; this collection attempts to show how the events in Haiti served to galvanize African Americans to think about themselves and to act in accordance with their beliefs; and contributes to the study of African Americans in the wider Atlantic World.
