DESCRIPTION:Belinda Maria Peters\n\n"The material dimension of cultural an
 d religious contact: the example of the White Fathers' missionary collecti
 on"\n\nA status report Missionary collections are a phenomenon that goes h
 and in hand with the strengthening of the Christian missionary movement fr
 om the mid-19th century\, especially in Europe. They primarily consist of 
 objects collected by Christian missionaries during their commitment in the
  missionary field. In the missionaries´ countries of origin\, missionary 
 societies used the collected objects for various purposes\, including publ
 icity for their work and societies. Due to their range of influence\, the 
 presentation of missionary collections had significant effects on the perc
 eption of the ‘other’ in Europe. The existence of missionary collectio
 ns as a source of religious and cultural contact is currently under acute 
 threat. In 2021 and 2023\, CERES took over two collections from a Catholic
  missionary congregation (White Fathers)\, which are analysed as a case st
 udy. This presentation will provide a first status report on the collectio
 n inventory and the initial research results.
