Robert Moffat: The Theology of a Missionary

By Meyer Levin

'This book, about the Scottish missionary Robert Moffat (1795-1883), is a completely new study of the theology, faith, piety of a missionary of the classical period of Protestant missions in southern Africa. It comprehensively analyses the factors which moulded the mindset of missionaries such as Moffat and his son-in-law David Livingstone, especially the effects of the Evangelical Revival, Scottish Calvinism, and the Scottish Enlightenment. As part of this major study, Ritchie also assesses to what extent these factors aided or hindered the missionary interaction with traditional culture and beliefs.
