Christian missions in Africa are commonly seen as a blatant example
of ethnocentrism. This stereotype partly persists because the
day-today interaction between missionaries and Africans has so
rarely been studied. This book shows how Africans and missionaries
co-produced a Catholic Church in the Uluguru mountains of eastern
Tanzania in the late colonial period, and thereby adapted each
others' routines in the fields of initiation, education, magic, and
religion in Africa by showing how the presence of the mission
resulted in a rift between spiritual and worldly magic, and in the
underdevelopment of the capacity of Waluguru to mange their own
practices of revelation.
