It takes the problem of faith as its central theme, emphasizing the particular existential tensions dividing yet uniting the Christian and the African. Drawing on Heidegger and Sartre, it analyses these tensions underlying and creating the dialogues of hybridity or metissage."--Bloomsbury Publishing. 606 $aChristianity$zAfrica, Central 606 $aReligion and politics$zAfrica, Central 606 $2Religion & beliefs 607 $aAfrica, Central$xReligion 615 0$aChristianity 615 0$aReligion and politics 676 $a291.1/77/0967 700 $aMudimbe$b V.
