Note(s) : Notes bibliogr. IndexIn exploring the shifting realities of missionary experience during the course of imperialist ventures and the Catholic Reformation, 'The Frontiers of Mission: Perspectives on Early Modern Missionary Catholicism' provides a fresh assessment of the challenges that the Catholic church encountered at the frontiers of mission in the early modern era. Bringing together leading international scholars, the volume tests the assumption that uniformity and co-ordination governed early modern missionary enterprise, and examines the effects of distance and de-centering on a variety of missionaries and religious orders. Its essays focus squarely on the experiences of the missionaries themselves to offer a nuanced consideration of the meaning of 'missionary Catholicism', and its evolving relationship with newly discovered cultures and political and ecclesiastical authorities
