The New Latin American Mission History
ISBN: 9780803279537 / Angielski / Miękka / 215 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The subject of missions--formal efforts at religious conversion of native peoples of the Americas by colonizing powers--is one that renders the modern student a bit uncomfortable. Where the mission enterprise was actuated by true belief it strikes the modern sensibility as fanaticism; where it sprang from territorial or economic motives it seems the rankest sort of hypocrisy. That both elements--greed and real faith--were usually present at the same time is bewildering. In this book seven scholars attempt to create a "new" mission history that deals honestly with the actions and philosophic...

While the Catholic church traditionally has dominated religious matters in Ecuador, Protestant groups--principally fundamentalists from North America--gained a foothold late in the nineteenth century. Goffin traces their... North American fundamentalist Protestants of all denominations and categories increasingly have journeyed to Latin America to proselytize and convert ...

ISBN: 9780813113333 / Angielski / Twarda / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The foreign missionary movement of the early 19th century grew out of the efforts of churches in New England to deal with the changes then taking place in society. The erosion of traditional institutional structures and social values plus the rise of Unitarianism threatened the destruction of the traditional faith. Mr. Andrew holds that the Congregational clergy used foreign missions not only to implant New England culture in heathen lands but also to awaken a sense of community at home.
