Abstract

This article illuminates the multifaceted contributions of Telugu Christian periodicals, showcasing their enduring significance in shaping India’s cultural landscape and historical understanding. Telugu Christian periodicals were vibrant platforms transcending religious boundaries during the colonial era, offering a tapestry of socio-political engagement, advocacy, and community building. These publications deftly navigated the complexities of colonial modernity by interweaving Christian principles with indigenous cultural narratives. Through religious discourse, impassioned calls for social reform, and insightful commentary on education, healthcare, and political developments, these periodicals reflected the nuanced aspirations of the Telugu Christian community. As invaluable historical artefacts, they provide profound insights into regional identities, societal norms, and the enduring legacy of colonialism in India.
