本文试图理解皈依基督教如何在内心改变语言及其修辞可能性。在Jytirao Phule的案例中，他不是一个皈依者，但他是19世纪西印度种姓差别的批评者，这意味着马拉蒂现在可以用来揭示印度教辩护者和婆罗门教之间的联系。在这里，我认为传教士传教士中使用的“谦逊的”马拉提语使皈依者的“我”的出现成为可能，并将“宗教”推入由价值观危机在社会生活中打开的鸿沟中，而福勒有效地利用了这场危机。
The essay tries to understand how conversion to Christianity can transform language and its rhetorical possibilities inwardly. In the case of Jyotirao Phule, who was not a convert but was a critic of caste distinctions in nineteenth-century Western India, this meant that Marathi could now be used to uncover the link between Hindu apologetics and Brahmanism. Here I argue that the ‘humble’ Marathi used in missionary tracts made possible the emergence of the ‘I’ of the convert, and pushed ‘religion’ into the gap opened up in social life by a crisis of values, a crisis productively instrumentalised by Phule.
