Résumé : | One of the most notable achievements of Christian missionaries during the las quarter of the nineteenth century was their contribution to the emergin; disciplines of anthropology and the comparative study of religion particularly Ì tribal societies. This study focuses on the twentieth century missionary landmark, the First World Missionary Conference at Edinburgh in 1910. Thi study breaks new ground by describing five models that demonstrate the rang with which missionaries of the Imperialist Era (1880-1920) interpreted triba religious traditions in relation to the Christian message. Friesen's study reflect both an interdependence and a critique of the political, religious an, anthropological spirit of the times. |
