eng	19th Century European Views on Caste and Bhakti	Bhakti traditions of India started to be seen as anti-caste and anti-brahmanical during the course of the 19th century Orientalism. This interpretation became a common sense knowledge of the later works on the same topic. How is this possible when we consider lots of counter-evidence that was known to the authors of this idea? The main arguments are analysing the background ideas leading Orientalist research and interpretation of Indian traditions as religions.	19th; Century; European; Views; Caste; and; Bhakti
