Reconstructing Tradition explores the devotional Hindu Krishnaite revival of the 15th and 16th centuries and its persistence into modern times through an examination of one of its principal figures, Advaita Acarya. He was the subject of several texts, and Manring considers all of them in terms of changing historical, social, and sectarian contexts.Rebecca Manring considers the role of hagiography in one school of Bengali Vaisnavism against the backdrop of regional religious history, examining the ways in which Advaita Acarya followers designed and used his life story for political and religious purposes.
