Она являлась важной составляющей процессов формирования колониального общества и трансформации африканского социума в XIX веке. На основании мемуаров, травелогов, дневников и писем миссионеров, а также официальных публикаций британского парламента и Капской колонии анализируются изменения в экономической жизни и хозяйственном укладе, распространение школьного образования, новые семейные ценности и формы организации жизненного пространства протестантских миссий в Южной Африке. Исследуется вклад африканцев в жизнь христианских общин, превращавший их в сплав модерности и доколониальных традиций. Даже самые строгие меры не могли искоренить традиции африканцев, и миссионерам приходилось мириться или закрывать глаза на осуществление этих практик их прихожанами. Автор приходит к выводу, что христианские общины протестантских миссий представляли собой, с одной стороны, вариацию общины избранных, хорошо известную по истории протестантизма раннего нового времени, и одновременно — совершенно новое явление в мировом христианстве, синкретическое по своей сути, результат встречи и взаимодействия культур на африканском континенте.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The article examines the activities of Protestant missionaries in South Africa. It was the most important component of the processes of the formation of a colonial society and the transformation of African society in the 19th century. Based on memoirs, travel journals, diaries and letters of missionaries, as well as official publications of the British Parliament and the Cape Colony, the article analyzes changes in economic life and the economic structure, the spread of school education, new family values and forms of organizing the living space of Protestant missions in South Africa. It then examines the African contribution to the life of Christian communities, which turned them into a fusion of modernity and precolonial traditions. Even the most stringent measures could not uproot the traditions of Africans, and missionaries had to reconcile or turn a blind eye to these practices within their congregations. The conclusion is that the Christian communities of Protestant missions were conceived, on the one hand, as the communities of the elect, as in early Protestant history; but they were, at the same time, a completely new syncretic phenomenon as the result of the interaction of cultures on the African continent.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>история Южной Африки</kwd><kwd>Капская колония</kwd><kwd>миссионерское движение</kwd><kwd>религиозный прозелитизм</kwd><kwd>протестантизм</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>history of South Africa</kwd><kwd>Cape Colony</kwd><kwd>missionary movement</kwd><kwd>religious proselytism</kwd><kwd>Protestantism</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Балезин, А.С.
