Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Brief History of Missionary Enterprise in Antient and Modern Times: Lecture Memoranda, World Missionary Conference, Edinburgh, 1910 Missionary enterprise is the highest form of Christian benevolence and one of the noblest works of man. It is in that instinctive desire which was implanted by the Creator in the human breast to help the weak and better the condition of others, that we have the germ of the impulse that has ever urged man to brave the greatest hardships and even the martyr's grave. The dominant feature of the life of the great Founder of Christianity and the maternal instinct to succour weak and helpless children are typified in the missionary efforts of the Christian Church. Abraham, who may fitly be called the first missionary, became the founder of the Church in the early ages. He has been called the Old Testament precursor of St. Paul who two thousand years afterwards, applied to the Gentiles the universal doctrines of faith and forgiveness advocated by the Patriarch. Some 400 years after the time of Noah, idolatry became rife among the people. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2009-03-27 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studies in the History of Christian Missions/R. E. Frykenberg and Brian Stanley, series editors/ The World Missionary Conference in Edinburgh in 1910 has come down in history as a unique event in the history of the Protestant missionary movement. Brian Stanley s book gives us a full and comprehensive account of the conference, doing so from the perspective of developments in the hundred years since the conference. His study should serve not only as a work of history but also as a work of theological reflection about mission as an ongoing international movement. I welcome this book as an important resource in the church s self-understanding and in its engagement with the world. Lamin Sanneh/Yale University/ Edinburgh 1910 laid the foundations of interdenominational understanding for the ecumenical movement of the twentieth century. . . . With impeccable scholarship, Brian Stanley has written a thorough and revealing analysis of this epoch-making conference. David Bebbington/University of Stirling/ An accomplished study revealing Stanley s deep scholarship and wide knowledge of the modern missionary movement. This book will surely become both a missionary and an ecumenical classic. David M. Thompson/Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge/ This long-awaited book is the definitive history of the World Missionary Conference held in Edinburgh in 1910. Stanley s thorough scholarship and elegant prose bring the conference to life and make a case for its enduring importance to the history of world Christianity. Scholars of missions, ecumenism, world religions, education, and Christian internationalism will find this superb study essential for their work. Dana L. Robert/Boston University School of Theology

Download or read book Antarctica Art and Archive written by Polly Gould and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2020-12-10 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Antarctica, that icy wasteland and extreme environment at the ends of the earth, was - at the beginning of the 20th century - the last frontier of Victorian imperialism, a territory subjected to heroic and sometimes desperate exploration. Now, at the start of the 21st century, Antarctica is the vulnerable landscape behind iconic images of climate change. In this genre-crossing narrative Gould takes us on a journey to the South Pole, through art and archive. Through the life and tragic death of Edward Wilson, polar explorer, doctor, scientist and artist, and his watercolours, and through the work of a pioneer of modern anthropology and opponent of scientific racism, Franz Boas, Gould exposes the legacies of colonialism and racial and gendered identities of the time. Antarctica, the White Continent, far from being a blank - and white - canvas, is revealed to be full of colour. Gould argues that the medium matters and that the practices of observation in art, anthropology and science determine how we see and what we know. Stories of exploration and open-air watercolour painting, of weather experiments and ethnographic collecting, of evolution and extinction, are interwoven to raise important questions for our times. Revisiting Antarctica through the archive becomes the urgent endeavour to imagine an inhabitable planetary future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Edinburgh 1910: An Account and Interpretation of the World Missionary Conference The World Missionary Conference, held at Edinburgh in June, has been characterized by discriminating Christian leaders as the most notable gathering in the interest of the world-wide expansion of Christianity ever held, not only in missionary annals, but in all Christian annals. Judged by the impression which it has made upon those who came within range of its direct influence, this is doubtless an unexaggerated estimate. The messages, the work, and the meaning of such a Conference must therefore be a matter of universal interest and concern. Many will wish to ob tain and study with thoroughness the nine volumes which contain the reports of the Commissions of the Conference, together with the abstracts of the debates upon these reports. A far larger number of Christians, including all who desire to keep abreast of the most vital developments in the progress of the Christian religion, will be eager to read some adequate interpre tation of this truly notable event.
