This
monumental work fills the gap in the research and documentation of Christian
missions, spanning nearly 2,000 years of world history. Never before has
there been such extensive and comprehensive coverage of Christian missions
with 2,400 original signed biographies by 350 authors from 45 countries. In
a convenient A-Z format, the Biographical Dictionary of Christian
Missions provides not only an authoritative record of outstanding
persons in the missionary movement, but also a sweeping historical account
of worldwide achievement and impact. Includes Appendix, Index, and
Bibliographies. Included in the articles are:
-
Date
and place of birth of the missionary, place of service, and religious
affiliation
-
Writings
and other achievements; development of the first dictionaries and
grammars of non-Western languages; references to practices of indigenous
peoples around the world from the earliest days of contact with Western
culture
-
Increasingly
important roles of the missions in European and North American regions
and how they have moved outside the boundaries of Western colonialism
with hundreds of new missions and thousands of new workers from Asia,
Africa, South America, and Oceania
Limited
