A Saturated History of Christianity and Cloth in Oceania 330 $a"Divine Domesticities: Christian Paradoxes in Asia and the Pacific fills a huge lacuna in the scholarly literature on missionaries in Asia/Pacific and is transnational history at its finest. Co-edited by two eminent scholars, this multidisciplinary volume, an outgrowth of several conferences/seminars, critically examines various encounters between western missionaries and indigenous women in the Pacific/Asia ? Taken as a whole, this is a thought-provoking and an indispensable reference, not only for students of colonialism/imperialism but also for those of us who have an interest in transnational and gender history in general. The chapters are very clearly written, engaging, and remarkably accessible; the stories are compelling and the research is thorough. The illustrations are equally riveting and the bibliography is extremely useful.?Theodore Jun Yoo, History Department, University of Hawai?i"--Publisher's website. 606 $aIndigenous women$zAsia 606 $aIndigenous women$zPacific Area 606 $aMissions$zAsia 606 $aMissions$zPacific Area 606 $aIndigenous women 615 0$aIndigenous women 615 0$aIndigenous women 615 0$aMissions 615 0$aMissions 615 0$aIndigenous women. 676 $a305.42 702 $aChoi$b Hyaeweol 702 $aJolly$b Margaret 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910132268303321 996 $aDivine domesticities$92037109 997 $aUNINA
