Více o knize
Focusing on the nineteenth-century colonial frontiers, the book explores how European and indigenous perspectives shaped the concepts of "religion" and "religions." Through the interactions of travelers, missionaries, settlers, and government agents, it analyzes the comparative discourse on alternative religious practices and the notion of "otherness." David Chidester argues that the frameworks established during these intercultural encounters continue to influence contemporary understandings of religion.
