Chidester investigates early European observers' denial of indigenous religion in southern Africa as a point of departure for a localized history of comparative religion. He analyzes the emergence of concepts of "religion" at sites of colonial contact and documents the ways in which European travelers, missionaries, settlers, and government agents compared alternative religious ways of life. Chidester demonstrates that colonial situations established terms and conditions for comparison including a discourse on "otherness" that remain with us today. Paper edition (1667-4), $19.50. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.
