Description
Christian Missions and the Enlightenment explores how the ideas of the European Enlightenment influenced Protestant missionaries in Asia and Africa from the mid-eighteenth century onwards.
The Scottish Enlightenment played a significant role in shaping their thinking, and this book examines the formative impact of these intellectual currents on Christian missions.
This study provides new insights into the complex relationships between faith, culture, and politics that defined the history of Protestant missions in Asia and Africa during this period.
