Catholic Beginnings in Oceania

By: Greiler, Alois

This volume deals with the founding of a missionary religious order in the Catholic Church, the Society of Mary, otherwise known as the Marists, a society of Priests many of whom in the early days went to the South Pacific islands. The book, a collection of essays, unites works by acknowledged authorities in the field along with some younger researchers. All of them open up new subjects and incorporate new research based on French sources. The book looks at the themes of Catholic Beginnings in Oceania with particular reference to the Marist, Father, Sisters and Marist Brothers.
