About the Author:
John William Colenso was consecrated the first Bishop of Natal on 30th November 1853 and died at Bishopstowe in 1883. The publication of this Commentary on Romans in 1861 sparked a controversy over the legitimate lengths to which the Church could go in accommodating itself to African culture, with major consequences for church and society in South Africa. This remarkable book is now made available again in the hope that Colenso's courageous engagement with African culture may resonate with and inspire contemporary work on enculturation of the gospel.

Book Description Killie Campbell Africana Library Reprint Series, Number 4. 8vo; original red rexine, lettered in gilt on spine; pictorial dustwrapper, housed in removable protector; pp. xlvi + (iv) + 252; frontis. portrait; illustrations; folding map. Dustwrapper a little sunned on spine panel; merest trace of foxing to endpapers. Very good condition. "The usefulness of this material extends beyond the interests of the student in missionary endeavour. For here there is vital information on the early history of the Zulu kingdom under Mpande. For the historian of ideas, fascinating light is cast on the interaction of intellectual currents emanating from England, and ideas and attitudes shaped in a colonial and a traditional context. In a sense Colenso operated simultaneously in three kinds of environment: as thinker in the intellectual world of England, as bishop in the colony of Natal, and as missionary confronting the traditional world of the Zulu.".
