Maggiori informazioni sul libro
The book explores the complex relationship between the Dii people of northern Cameroon and Norwegian missionaries, questioning whether the mission was a colonial endeavor or a spiritual revival. Through archival research and fieldwork, it reveals how both parties viewed the mission differently: missionaries saw it as spiritual liberation, while the Dii emphasized social liberation through literacy and political independence. The narrative highlights the interplay of captivation, miscommunication, and negotiation that shaped their interactions and resulted in both spiritual and social transformations.
