Niang ingeniously compares the colonial objectification of his own people by French colonists to the Graeco-Roman colonial objectifications of the ancient Celts\/Gauls\/Galatians, and Paul's role in bringing about a different portrayal.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Aliou Cissé Niang\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004175229\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004175228\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/20\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 182\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/01\/2009 pg. 26","brand":"Aliou Cissé Niang","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47136557924607,"sku":"9789004175228","price":159.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ea38ca58-85d1-4f7a-b85d-cf18bd7c228e.jpg?v=1755023710","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/faith-and-freedom-in-galatia-aliou-cisszs-niang-9789004175228","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
