Emotions and Christian Missions: Historical Perspectives - Palgrave Studies in the History of Emotions
Claire McLisky
This book explores the ways in which emotions were conceptualised and practised in Christian mission contexts from the 17th-20th centuries. The authors show how emotional practices such as prayer, tears, and Methodist 'shouting', and feelings such as pity, joy and frustration, shaped relationships between missionaries and prospective converts.
