Book Description
"In 1979 A South African bibliography to the year 1925 (SABIB), compiled under the auspices of the South AFrican Library, was published in four volumes by Mansell of London. It was essentially a revision and continuation of Sidney Mendelssohn's South African bibliography (London, 1910), which recorded literature about South Africa from earliest times to 1909, regardless of place of publication. For the new bibliography the period was extended to 1925, but for practical reasons the scope was limited to the geographical area south of the Limpopo, and certain material, for example books in African languages, sheet music, maps and periodicals, was excluded."--Preface to Supplement.

Translating Religion
Author: Michael DeJonge
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317529952
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
Translating Religion advances thinking about translation as a critical category in religious studies, combining theoretical reflection about processes of translation in religion with focused case studies that are international, interdisciplinary, and interreligious. By operating with broad conceptions of both religion and translation, this volume makes clear that processes of translation, broadly construed, are everywhere in both religious life and the study of religion; at the same time, the theory and practice of translation and the advancement of translation studies as a field has developed in the context of concerns about the possibility and propriety of translating religious texts. The nature of religions as living historical traditions depends on the translation of religion from the past into the present. Interreligious dialogue and the comparative study of religion require the translation of religion from one tradition to another. Understanding the historical diffusion of the world’s religions requires coming to terms with the success and failure of translating a religion from one cultural context into another. Contributors ask what it means to translate religion, both textually and conceptually, and how the translation of religious content might differ from the translation of other aspects of human culture. This volume proposes that questions on the nature of translation find particularly acute expression in the domains of religion, and argues that theoretical approaches from translation studies can be fruitfully brought to bear on contemporary religious studies.

The Transforming Gospel
Author: Jean-François Zorn
Publisher: World Council of Churches
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 100
Book Description
This is the story of the origins and growth of Protestant mission in central southern Africa. In 1833 the Paris Mission helped found the Christian Church of Lesotho; in the 1870s a second wave of French missionaries became convinced that Africans themselves could bring the good news to others on the continent. The author highlights the heroism and dedication of missionaries like François Coillard and his wife, and the fragile and often inadequate support from the minority groups of French-speaking Protestantism in Europe, caught up at the time in the throes of the church-versus-state debate. The Church of the Zambezi, in the area now known as Zambia, was firmly established by 1930 and became autonomous in 1964.
