This book was released on 1999 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the missionary movement's influence on popular perceptions of empire and race in nineteenth-century England. The foreign missionary endeavor was one of the most influential of the channels through which nineteenth-century Britons encountered the colonies, and because of their ties to organized religion, foreign missionary societies enjoyed more regular access to a popular audience than any other colonial lobby. Focusing on the influential denominational case of English Congregationalism, this study shows how the missionary movement's audience in Britain was inundated with propaganda designed to mobilize financial and political support for missionary operations abroad, propaganda in which the imperial context and colonized targets of missionary operations figured prominently. In her attention to the local social contexts in which missionary propaganda was disseminated, the author departs from the predominantly cultural thrust of recent studies of imperialism's popularization. She shows how Congregationalists made use of the language and institutional space provided by missions in their struggles to negotiate local relations of power. In the process, the missionary project was implicated in some of the most important developments in the social history of nineteenth-century Britain -- the popularization of organized religion and its subsequent decline, the emergence and evolution of a language of class, the gendered making of a middle class, and the strange death of British liberalism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nineteen Centuries of Missions: A Handbook Primarily Prepared for Young People Who is better fitted to write a brief history of foreign missions than one who has given a lifetime to missionary service; one who is enthusiastic in her love for the cause one who sees the hand of God in all the past, and His bow of promise over all the future; and one who at the same time is possessed of the gift of literary expression in no small degree '1' All these qualifications are claimed by her friends for the author of this volume, Mrs. F. A. Scudder, who, with her husband, the late Reverend William W. Scudder, spent many fruit ful years in Southern India in the service of the Arcot Mission of the Reformed Church in America. When I began the perusal of the ad vance sheets of this volume I expected much, be cause of my knowledge of the author and of her intimate acquaintance with and enthusiasm for the subject she treats. But my expectations have been more than realized. I know of no other book where, in so small compass, the great salient facts of missionary his tory have been brought together in a manner at once accurate, interesting and helpful. To tell the story of two thousand years in less than two hundred and fifty pages and at the same time give anything more than dry facts and dryer dates, is a task from which any author might well shrink, but Mrs. Scudder has accomplished this difficult task, and has made a book that is read able as well as instructive.
