| Summary: | Biographical note: R. S. Sugirtharajah is Emeritus Professor of Biblical Hermeneutics at the University of Birmingham. The Bible's influence on the West has received much more attention than its complex career in the East. R. S. Sugirtharajah's expansive study of Asia's idiosyncratic relationship with the Bible tells of missionaries, imperialists, and reformers who molded Biblical texts in order to influence religion, politics, and daily life from India to China. |
