RT Book T1 History of global Christianity A2 Schjørring, Jens Holger 1942- A2 Hjelm, Norman A. 1931- A2 Ward, Kevin 1947- A2 Orton, David LA English PP Leiden Boston PB Brill UL https://ixtheo.de/Record/1020525037 AB Christianity was a global religion prior to the history recounted in 'European and Global Christianity, 1500 - 1789'. There were Christians in Asia and Africa before Europeans arrived in those places as well as in Latin America and North America, by movements of economic and political conquest and migration, and also Christian mission. This volume attests to the intensification of this globalization - in these 'new' continents as well as in Russia and the Ottoman territories. Simultaneously, in Europe Christianity was marked by Reformations, by confessional divisions, and by the Enlightenment. This global religion affected all structures of human life - society, politics, economics, philosophy, art, and the myriad ventures that form civilizations NO Volume 3 edited by Jens Holger Schjørring, Norman A.
