Recenzii
"Focusing more on movements, institutions, and geographical regions than on individual personalities, this resource will help nonspecialists and specialists alike map out topics for further research in the last 500 years of global church movements." - M.S. Hill, Liberty University in *Choice*, November 2018.
"[T]his is an important book because of its ambition to present an international, if not ‘global’, overview. As Kevin Ward rightly points out in the chapter on Africa, by 1900 Christianity may have become global, but in many parts of the world, Christianity, despite its missionary zeal and revivalist momentum, was still a religion of minorities.At its core, History of Christianity in the 19th century remains a fairly classical retreading of older historiographical paths that lead through the Christian nineteenth century, which will be a useful scholarly introduction for students of history and religion and a valid work of reference for researchers." - Kristof Smeyers, University of Antwerp, in: British Catholic History 34:3, pp. 521-523.
"The volumes take a fresh approach in presenting historical research from a global angle, so as to not be constrained by the typical European ethnocentric tunnel vision. Too often Church history was written and prescribed from a Eurocentric perspective, which is as much apparent in its terminology (e.g. Middle East, Near East) as in its proportional selection (more attention for the Atlantic axis). In this regard the series is a ‘Fundgrube’ of data, narratives, and historical reflections not hindered by cultural biases given with the false assumption that modernity and civilisation only started with the wake of Europe." - Henk Bakker, Free University Amsterdam, JEBS 21:1 (2021), pp. 201-203.
