From the history of colonial missions, through the development of denominations, to the emergence of African initiated churches, Christianity has assumed a variety of distinctively South African forms. This comprehensive guide offers detailed reviews of over 600 works that have established the importance of Christianity in South African history, society, and religious experience. Of interest to scholars and students of religious studies, cultural anthropology, African Studies, and history, this volume, together with \u003ci\u003eAfrican Traditional Religion in South Africa\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eIslam, Hinduism, and Judaism in South Africa\u003c\/i\u003e (both Greenwood, 1997), will become the standard reference work on South African religions. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn each section--Christian Missions, Christian Denominations, and African Initiated Churches--an introductory essay identifies significant themes in the literature.
