Temple-Entry Movement in Travancore, 1860-1940, Robin Jeffrey's 1976 article in the peer reviewed journal Social Scientist, examines the temple entry movement with grounding in documented political and social history rather than a devotional or campaigning account. Its strength is that documented, peer reviewed history. Its limit is its age and its focus on one princely state; a reader wanting the movement's wider all India context should pair it with broader histories of the anti-caste temple entry campaigns.
