{"product_id":"missionaries-and-modernity-felicity-jensz-9781526152978","title":"Missionaries and Modernity: Education in the British Empire, 1830-1910","description":"Many missionary societies established mission schools in the nineteenth century in the British Empire as a means to convert non-Europeans to Christianity. Although the details, differed in various colonial contexts, the driving ideology behind mission schools was that Christian morality was highest form of civilisation needed for non-Europeans to be useful members of colonies under British rule. This comprehensive survey of multi-colonial sites over the long time span clearly describes the missionary paradox that to draw in pupils they needed to provide secular education, but that secular education was seen to lead both to a moral crisis and to anti-British sentiments.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Felicity Jensz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1526152975\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781526152978\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/22\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.69d","brand":"Felicity Jensz","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43943974371583,"sku":"9781526152978","price":120.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_28ffe1e3-524d-4b87-93bc-21cfa8003356.jpg?v=1681501072","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/missionaries-and-modernity-felicity-jensz-9781526152978","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
