Description: Interrogating the Language of Self and Other in the History of Modern Christian Mission : Contestation, Subversion, and Re-imagination, Paperback by Yip, Man-hei; Nessan, Craig L. (FRW), ISBN 1532674309, ISBN-13 9781532674303, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US This book offers a critical analysis of the use of language in mission studies. Language and Christian missionary activity intersect in complicated ways to objectify the other in cross-cultural situations. Rethinking missiological language is both urgentand necessary to subvert narratives that continue to fetishize the other as cultural stereotypes. The project takes a step forward to reconceptualize otherness as gift, and such an affirmation should create a pathway for human flourishing and furthermore, open new avenues for missiological exploration to address issues arising from a world dominated by bigoted discourses, lies, and hate speech. -- back cover.
