'This book by a leading Indian philosopher is the first full-length treatment of Gandhi's religious thought. By exploring the fundamental influence of the Hindu tradition and religious culture on Gandhi's political, economic and social visions, Margaret Chatterjee adds an essential dimension to our understanding of this internationally-adopted figure of peace.'

PALGRAVE~MACMILLAN

Margaret Chatterjee's new work Hinterlands and Horizons―a collection of nine phenomenological essays ranging across cultures and time periods―studies the historical and cultural evolution of the idea of amity and the concomitant concepts of fraternity, friendship, and tolerance. The work starts with the Enlightenment's idea of fraternity and its destruction during the fratricide of the French Terror. It includes chapters focusing upon the encounters between colonizers and missionaries, the impact of the Holocaust on the search for amity, the prospect for amity in contemporary multiculturalism, and the potential of religion to deepen the experience of amity. An incisive interdisciplinary analysis of the bases of discord and harmony, of history and memory, Hinterlands and Horizons will be an enduring contribution to the history of ideas.

Most of Gandhi's associates in South Africa were Jewish. They were brought together through a common interest in theosophy and became deeply involved in Gandhi's campaigns, looking after his affairs when he was away in London or India. This book looks at the association between the two groups.
