It offers an ethnographical investigation of the Jukun of north central Nigeria. The author also organically weaves into the narrative the Christianization of the Irish in a comparative fashion. Throughout, he makes the case for an African Christianity connected to a Celtic Irish Christianity and vice-versa -- as different threads in a tapestry..This work is a product of a synthesis of archival research in three continents, interviews with surviving first-generation Christians who were active practitioners of the Jukun indigenous religion, and with former missionaries to the Jukun. On the Irish side, it draws from extant primary sources and interviews with scholars in Celtic Irish studies. In addition, pictures, diagrams, and excerpts from British colonial and missionary journals provide a rich contextual understanding of Jukun religious life and practices..The author is among the emerging voices in the study of World Christianity who advocate for the reality of "poly-centres" for Christianity. This perspective recognizes voices from the Global South in the expansion of Christianity. | | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | | 关键词 | British Colonialism, Missionaries in Nigeria; Christian Missions in Africa; Christianity in Nigeria; I | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-42180-9 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-42182-3 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-42180-9 | | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2020 |
