Abstract
A sophisticated, state-of-the-art approach to the embrace of Christianity by indigenous societies, that reveals the manifold transformations of Christian discourses in the colonial Americas. Surveying how Christian messages were rendered in indigenous languages, the book explores what was gained, transformed, or left behind in these translations.--Provided by publisher.
