Caribbean Religious History offers the first comprehensive religious history of the region.Ennis B. Edmonds and Michelle A. Gonzalez begin their exploration with the religious traditions of the Amerindians who flourished prior to contact with European colonizers, then detail the transplantation of Catholic and Protestant Christianity and their centuries of struggles to become integral to the Caribbean?s religious ethos, and trace the twentieth century penetration of American Evangelical Christianity, particularly in its Pentecostal and Holiness iterations. Caribbean Religious History also illuminates the influence of Africans and their descendants on the shaping of such religious traditions as Vodou, Santeria, Revival Zion, Spiritual Baptists, and Rastafari, and the success of Indian indentured laborers and their descendants in reconstituting Hindu and Islamic practices in their new environment.Paying careful attention to the region?s social and political history, Edmonds and Gonzalez present a one-volume panoramic introduction to this religiously vibrant part of the world. 606 $aRELIGION / History$2bisacsh 607 $aCaribbean Area$xReligion 615 7$aRELIGION / History. 676 $a200.9729 700 $aEdmonds$b Ennis B.$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01545021 702 $aGonzalez$b Michelle A.$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910791335603321 996 $aCaribbean Religious History$93799649 997 $aUNINA
