Kritik
"Paulin Batairwa Kubuya's book is very valuable ... . It provides a very helpful overview of the extended debates about ancestor religion in Christianity, including a review of recent scholarship and practical approaches from Hong Kong and Taiwan." (Amy O'Keefe, Review of Religion and Chinese Society, Vol. 7, 2020)
"This book is well written and edited. Part of Palgrave's 'Asian Christianity in the Disapora' series, it indeed demonstrates the significance of the ancestors in Chinese Christianity and has relevance for many communities. By developing the study of Chinese ancestor religion, Batairwa Kubuya provides focus and punch, proposing a new way of interpreting the ancestors for Christians and others." (Jonathan A. Seitz, Reading Religion, readingreligion.org, September, 2018)mehr
