Collected Works of Sebastian Kappen-Vol. III
Sebastian Kappen S.J. (1924-1993) was a renowned philosopher, author and liberation theologian from India. Kappen did his doctoral studies from the Gregorian University, Rome, with a thesis on "Praxis and Religious Alienation according to the Economic and Philosophical Manuscripts of Karl Marx". His subsequent studies have been geared to the requirements of transformative social action in India. This led him to an investigation into the liberative and humanizing potential of the original teachings of the historical Jesus as well as of Indian religious traditions, particularly the tradition of dissent represented by Buddha and the medieval Bhakti movement. Kappen was engaged in a study of communalism and the post-modernism debate, when mother earth called him back on the 30th of November 1993. This third volume of the Collected Works of Sebastian Kappen contains his book Jesus and Cultural Revolution and related essays.

Life in Freedom
In Life in Freedom Michael Amaladoss analyzes the many rich and complex strands of Asian religious thought on the notion and nature of the path toward liberation.

In Part One Amaladoss discusses current liberation movements and thought in Korea, the Philippines, and India. In two other chapters, he shows also that the awakening of women is integral to the search for human freedom and development and the gro...
Mark and its Subalterns
This book offers a fresh appraisal of the identity and involvement of the subalterns in Mark, arguing that the presence of the subalterns in Mark is a possible hermeneutical tool for re-reading the Bible in a postcolonial context like India. Part I paves the way for a creative discussion on Mark and its interpreters in the rest of the study by looking at the issue of the spread of Christianity and missionary attempts at biblical interpretations that did not take the life of the natives into account.
