L’opera affronta la annosa questione dei riti malabarici, cosiddetti dalla regione indiana di Malabar: i Gesuiti, missionari nelle Indie orientali, avevano autorizzato una pericolosa e non ortodossa commistione di cerimonie cristiane e riti pagani. Il cappuccino Norberto, (1697-1770), pseudonimo dell’abate Platel, offre una descrizione storica molto dettagliata e critica delle missioni gesuite in Malabar, arricchita da molte notizie circa la cultura e costumi degli indiani. Il legato pontificio de Tournon promulgò nel 1704 la prima condanna dei riti malabarici, e con Benedetto XIV si ebbe la normativa in 16 punti che definiva il comprtamento dei missionari cattolici. missioni mission viaggi India malabar riti rites customs indians jesuits gesuiti cappuccini
