Description
This title showcases recent reflexive research on African Christianity that draws inspiration from the career of Inus Daneel. It evocatively brings together the indigenous knowledges of church leaders and chiefs with various scholarly constructions of African Initiated Churches (AICs) in South Africa, Zimbabwe and Malawi to extend the limits of research in this field. The product of a missionary home and fluent in Shona, Inus Daneel, became fascinated by the interplay among African traditional religions, Shona culture and Christianity. He moved into the Shona communal lands among members of AICs as a participantuobserver in order to gain a better understanding of their spirituality.
