Book Description
This book chronicles the pioneering efforts of Edward Winter Clark and Mary Mead Clark, the first American Baptist missionaries who successfully planted the good news of Jesus Christ in Nagaland, India. Its author, Dr. Narola Ao McFayden, a great-granddaughter of the first Naga pastor who worked with this missionary couple, draws upon archival materials such as original letters, correspondence, and articles by and about the Clarks to reveal the nature of their groundbreaking work and the courage of the Naga people who received these missionaries. From these materials, she crafts a story of pioneers - of pioneering missionaries and pioneering Nagas - and of the ways in which they together crossed geographic, social, political, cultural, religious, and linguistic borders.

Christianity and Politics in Tribal India
Author: G. Kanato Chophy
Publisher: State University of New York Press
ISBN: 1438485832
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 500
Book Description
Through an ethnohistorical study of the Nagas—a congeries of tribes inhabiting the Indo-Myanmar frontier—this book explores an unusually interesting region of India that is all too often seen as peripheral. G. Kanato Chophy provides a distinct vantage point for understanding the Nagas in relation to colonialism, missionary encounters, identity politics, and cultural change, all seamlessly woven around American Baptist mission history in this region. The book also analyses India's cacophonous postindependence democracy in order to delineate multifaith issues, multiculturalism, and ethnicity-based political movements. Within the West, episodic memories of the "Great Awakening," a significant landmark in the history of Protestantism, have faded into archival records. But among the Nagas of the Indo-Myanmar highlands, Baptist Christianity persists as the dominant religion, influencing the daily lives of nearly three million people. Focusing variously on evangelical faith, missionary zeal, ethnic identities, political struggle, and complex culture wars, Christianity and Politics in Tribal India is an original and major study of how Protestant missions changed the history and destiny of a tribal community in one of the unlikeliest regions of South Asia.
