Meisig, Konrad/Marion Meisig
Tamil Temples

Traditional and Transcultural. Thirty-Three Sketches.

In their book Konrad and Marion Meisig offer sketches of thirty-three Tamil Saiva temples in India, Sri Lanka, Germany, Canada, Great Britain and Mauritius. These sketches are based on four categories of temples, depending on whether their principal deity is Ganesa, Muru-gan, a goddess (Devi) or Siva. There are three methods of presentation: text, picture and ground plan. All three are equally important. This combination will convey the comprehensive religious- historical information.
