- Donald Fraser's missionary methods and Ngoni culture
Description
Christianity in Northern Malawi deals with the interaction of the missionary methods of the Scottish missionary Donald Fraser and the traditional culture of the Ngoni people of northern Malawi in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It looks at Ngoni origins and culture prior to first contacts with the missionaries, at the early life and ideas of Fraser, and at Fraser's disagreements with some of his Scottish colleagues. There are also sections on Ngoni interactions with the early colonial government, and the development of a genuinely Ngoni church. Using primary and oral sources (some of which were not previously available) this book will be useful to all those interested in the development of Christianity in Africa, and, in particular, to those with an interest in the inculturation of Christianity in Africa, and the religious and political history of Malawi.
