Sprachliche Legitimierung protestantischer Mission die Publikationen von Svenska Missionsförbundet um 1900

Hanna Acke, De Gruyter Mouton (Publisher)
This study focuses on the use of language in Protestant missionary publications. The author examines the communicative strategies for legitimizing Swedish missions in Africa and Asia around 1900 and reveals the ways that intersections between Christian religious ideas and colonialist, racist notions of superiority were used to justify missionary activities
