In a new chapter in this anniversary edition, author Albert J. Raboteau reflects upon the origins of the book, the reactions to it over the past twenty-five years, and how he would write it differently today. Using a variety of first and second-hand sources-- some objective, some personal, all riveting-- Raboteau analyzes the transformation of the African religions into evangelical Christianity. He presents the narratives of the slaves themselves, as well as missionary reports, travel accounts, folklore, black autobiographies, and the journals of white observers to describe the day-to-day religious life in the slave communities. Slave Religion is a must-read for anyone wanting a full picture of this "invisible institution." 172413 7 10 2004 Slave Religion: The "Invisible Institution" in the Antebellum South total:19|5:3|4:12|3:3|2:1|1:0| 19 74 36 1 0 0 false false Tue Jan 01 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Sat Nov 24 18:11:01 -0800 2007 Sat Jan 19 16:27:40 -0800 2008 0 0 false false Wed Nov 18 07:26:50 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 18 07:26:50 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Mon Oct 19 07:03:14 -0700 2009 Mon Oct 19 07:03:14 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Mon Oct 12 13:19:53 -0700 2009 Mon Oct 12 13:19:53 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sun Oct 11 14:23:53 -0700 2009 Sun Oct 11 14:23:53 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Oct 07 10:07:08 -0700 2009 Wed Oct 07 10:07:08 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sun Oct 25 09:48:40 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 03 19:00:09 -0700 2009 Sat Oct 03 19:00:09 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Wed Sep 30 18:47:06 -0700 2009 Wed Sep 30 18:47:14 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Fri Sep 18 17:33:14 -0700 2009 Fri Sep 18 17:33:14 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Mon Aug 03 11:31:57 -0700 2009 Mon Aug 03 11:31:57 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Thu Jul 23 08:32:13 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 23 08:32:13 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Sun Feb 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sun May 24 11:10:07 -0700 2009 Sun May 24 12:03:03 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed May 13 11:47:15 -0700 2009 Wed May 13 11:48:14 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Feb 27 11:35:46 -0800 2009 Fri Feb 27 11:35:46 -0800 2009 0 0 false false Mon Oct 27 05:47:40 -0700 2008 Mon Oct 27 05:47:40 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Sat Oct 11 14:34:01 -0700 2008 Sat Oct 11 14:34:03 -0700 2008 4 0 false false Tue Oct 07 21:08:44 -0700 2008 Tue Oct 07 21:08:44 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Tue Oct 07 11:13:33 -0700 2008 Tue Oct 07 11:13:33 -0700 2008 0 0 false false Tue Jul 15 18:00:46 -0700 2008 Tue Jul 15 18:00:49 -0700 2008 5 0 false false Mon Jun 30 18:48:44 -0700 2008 Mon Jun 30 18:48:44 -0700 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=178473
