Christian missions and missionaries have had a distinctive role in Canada's cultural history. With Canadian Missionaries, Indigenous Peoples, Alvyn Austin and Jamie S.

A quarterly review of inter-American cultural history.
Dans cet ouvrage, le Centre de Recherches et d’Échanges sur la Diffusion et l’Inculturation du Christianisme (Credic) s’est interrogé sur l’image animée, ses usages en contexte missionnaire et sur la représentation des missions au sein du cinéma profane.

These accounts offer an opportunity to gauge the extent to which twentieth-century missionary work provided fertile ground for the emergence, deployment, and transfer of socio-ecclesiastical innovations that would prove ...
