    Abstract: "A celebrated Hindu pilgrimage site, Hardwar lies on the river Ganges at the edge of the Himalayas. Its identity as a holy place is inextricably tied to the mythology and reality of the Ganges, and traditional sources overwhelmingly stress this connection. Virtually nothing has been written about Hardwar's history and development, although the historical record reveals striking changes during the past few centuries. These changes have usually reflected worldly forces such as shifting trade routes, improved transportation, and political instability. Yet such mundane influences have been ignored in the city's sacred narrative, which presents a fixed, unchanging identity. The city's complex identity, says James Lochtefeld, lies in the tension between these differing narratives." "Working from these narratives, Lochtefeld's fieldwork-based study analyzes modern Hardwar as a Hindu pilgrimage center. He looks first at various groups of local residents - businessmen, hereditary priests, and ascetics - and assesses their differing roles in managing Hardwar as a holy place. He then examines the pilgrims and the factors that bring them to Hardwar. None of these groups is as pious as popularly depicted, he finds, but their interactions in upholding their own interests create and maintain Hardwar's religious environment." "In conclusion, Lochtefeld addresses the wider context of Indian pilgrimage and the forces shaping it in the present day. He finds that many modern Hindus, like many modern Christians, feel some dissonance between traditional religious symbols and their twenty-first-century world, and that they are reinterpreting their traditional symbols to make them meaningful for their time. God's Gateway is a revelation, not just of the ongoing evolution in the identity of a particular site, but of the manner in which the faithful of all religions modify the meaning of their sacred symbols as they move into the future."--BOOK JACKET

    Keywords: Motion pictures History ; Motion pictures Religious aspects ; Film ; Hinduismus ; Religion 〈Motiv〉 ; Gottesdarstellung ; Geschichte ; Indien ; Indien ; Film ; Hinduismus ; Religion ; Gottesdarstellung
    Abstract: Filming the Gods examines the role and depiction of religion in Indian cinema, showing that the relationship between the modern and the traditional in contemporary India is not exotic, but part of everyday life. Concentrating mainly on the Hindi cinema of Mumbai, Bollywood, it also discusses India's other cinemas. Rachel Dwyer's lively discussion encompasses the mythological genre which continues India's long tradition of retelling Hindu myths and legends, drawing on sources such as the national epics of the Mahabharata and the Ramayana; the devotional genre, which flourished at the height of the nationalist movement in the 1930s and 40s; and the films made in Bombay that depict India's Islamicate culture, including the historical, the courtesan film and the 'Muslim social' genre. Filming the Gods also examines the presence of the religious across other genres and how cinema represents religious communities and their beliefs and practices. It draws on interviews with film stars, directors and producers as well as popular fiction, fan magazines and the films themselves. As a result, Filming the Gods is a both a guide to the study of film in religious culture as well as a historical overview of Indian religious film
