Of Revelation and Revolution, Volume 1: Christianity, Colonialism, and Consciousness in South Africa

by John L. Comaroff, Jean Comaroff, John L. Comaroff

Book Overview

Of Revelation and Revolution is at once a highly imaginative, richly detailed history of colonialism, Christianity, and consciousness in South Africa, and a theoretically challenging consideration of the most difficult questions posed by the nature of social experience. Although primarily concerned with the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, Of Revelation and Revolution also looks forward to the age of apartheid and beyond.
