Description: Concepts of Conversion : The Politics of Missionary Scriptural Translations, Hardcover by Pharo, Lars Kirkhusmo, ISBN 3110499886, ISBN-13 9783110499889, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Pharo analyzes social and political interactions and context of the translation of scriptures by missionary linguists as a particular form and structure of communication. The issue, he says, is that terminology representing principle ideas and knowledge anticipates and conceivably converts not only a language, but also a cultural, philosophical, religious, and sociopolitical structure. He offers a historical perspective on the dynamics of contemporary North American Protestant missionary activities in Latin America, and their effort to translate major doctrines of Christian moral philosophy into indigenous American languages.
