Christian Interculture by Arun W Jones
A collection of essays exploring how scholars can discern the voices, thoughts, activities, and motivations of indigenous Christians of Asia, Africa, and the Americas in texts produced in the context of European domination from 1500 to the present.“Breaking new ground in the study of Christian historiography beyond its Eurocentric underpinnings to encompass the diverse but hitherto overlooked Christian historiographies across the Majority World, Christian Interculture draws attention to the ignored and often suppressed endeavors by indigenous Christians to define Christianity in their own voices beyond the colonial expressions that were imposed on them, with important intercultural and interreligious implications for shaping the emergent historiographies of World Christianities”
—Jonathan Y. Tan, author of Christian Mission Among the Peoples of Asia
“Jones has edited a work that is a meaningful addition to the postcolonial conversation, and this book invites a continuation of the dialogue by way of research opportunities.”
—Millicent H. Haase Reading Religion
