India seen from the East : Indian and indigenous cults in Champa

"Paul Mus (1902-69), a historian of religion in India and ancient Southeast Asia, has had profound influence on generations of scholars. India seen from the east draws upon his fieldwork among the Cham people of Vietnam, remnants of a society that had once boasted a flourishing Indian-style culture, but came to be known only through ruins, religious sculptures and fractured folk memories. This is perhaps the most influential of Mus's publications, and vividly justifies his conviction that, in the eyes of the Chams, 'folk' and 'Indian' were one and the same"--Back cover Paul Mus, Translated By Iw Mabbett, Edited By Iw Mabbett And Dp Chandler.
