Translating the Message: The Missionary Impact on Culture (R

ISBN: 1570758042

Author: Sanneh, Lamin

Condition: new

Since its original publication Translating the Message has transformed common perceptions of mission, showing how the process of "translation" has made Christianity a preserver, rather than a destroyer of indigenous languages and cultures.This thoroughly revised edition, drawing on the latest scholarship, refocuses the original thesis and adds illustrations and new tables of translation.
