Sommario/riassunto |
|
A new and challenging look at Christian institutions and practices in Britain's Caribbean and southern American colonies. Focusing on the plantation societies of Barbados, Jamaica, and South Carolina, Beasley finds that the tradition of liturgical worship was more vibrant and more deeply rooted in European Christianity than previously thought. |
