Legacies of (Post)Colonial Bible Translations in the Arctic, Australia/Oceania and West Africa

International Academic Conference Accompanying Exhibition Opening

The project "Global Bible: British and German Bible Societies Translating Colonialism" (GloBil) aims to critically investigate British and German contributions to the creation of a global bible, that is the attempt to translate Christian scripture into all the languages of the world. By early in the twentieth century, some portion of the bible had been translated into approximately 1,000 languages, including many with no previous written language.
