India And The Apostle Thomas: An Inquiry With A Critical Analysis Of The Acta Thomae

By A.E. Medlycott

""India and the Apostle Thomas"" is a book written by A. E. Medlycott that delves into the history and mythology surrounding the Apostle Thomas and his alleged travels to India. The book provides a detailed inquiry into the historical evidence that supports or refutes the claims of Thomas' missionary work in India, as well as a critical analysis of the Acta Thomae, a collection of early Christian texts that describe Thomas' travels and teachings. Medlycott examines the cultural and religious context of ancient India, as well as the political and social climate of the time, to provide a comprehensive understanding of the historical and mythological significance of Thomas' alleged journey. Through careful analysis and interpretation of the available evidence, Medlycott offers a nuanced and thought-provoking exploration of the relationship between Christianity and India, and the role of Thomas in the spread of the Christian faith.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
