Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ten Years Review of Mission Work in Madagascar, 1880-1890 The following report of mission in Madagascar has been prepared in accordance with a regulation of the London Missionary Society requiring that a General Review of the progress made in the Society's missions should be drawn up at the end of every decade. The first Review of the kind, prepared by Rev. W. E. Cousins, was published in 1870, and contained a brief history of the mission during the preceding ten years. The second, prepared by Rev. B. Briggs, appeared in 1880. It consisted of over 300 pages, and was of a very exhaustive character. No period in the history of the mission in Madagascar has witnessed so many changes and such remarkable progress in the spread of Christianity among the people as that between 1870 - 1880: churches sprang up on every hand, the number of church-members increased more than threefold, schools multiplied, and numerous beneficial changes of a social and political character kept pace with the spread of the Gospel; and in order to enable the Directors and friends of the Society to comprehend the new order of things, it became necessary, at the end of that decade, to give the fullest details concerning our work here and to enter into particulars which, once told, it is no longer needful to speak of. The Review therefore published in 1880 remains to this day a valuable record of facts and events directly and indirectly connected with the work carried on, not only by the London Missionary Society, but by all the Protestant Missionary Societies in the island. The work of the past ten years has been one of consolidation rather than expansion, of growth in knowledge and Christian life among the churches rather than in numerical increase.

This book was released on 2018-02-02 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Through Lands That Were Dark, Being a Record of a Year's Missionary Journey, in Africa and Madagascar Nor does the discussion of questions of missionary policy or any account of the details of the work in the various fields fall within the scope of this book. These matters have been dealt with in Reports prepared for the Directors of the Society. Further information with regard to all the fields can be obtained in the Society's Annual Report. Some account of Madagascar and the missionary work there will be also found in a book just published, entitled Madagascar for Christ, being the Joint Report of the Simultaneous Deputations from the London Missionary Society, The Friends' Foreign Mission Association, and the Paris Missionary Society, which have recently returned from Madagascar.* The journey has been one of great fascination. From the point of view of the traveller it has been full of interest. From the point of View of a Secretary of a Missionary Society carrying on work in the lands visited, the out standing impression has been that of the growing Christian Church. In Central Africa that Church is in its infancy, but it is an infancy full of promise. In South Africa and Madagascar the Native Church is nearly a century old. Its foundations have been well and truly laid, and it exhibits all the signs of healthy life and growth. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Encounters between Jesuits and Protestants in Africa written by Robert Aleksander Maryks and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2018-01-03 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Protestants entering Africa in the nineteenth century sought to learn from earlier Jesuit presence in Ethiopia and southern Africa. The nineteenth century was itself a century of missionary scramble for Africa during which the Jesuits encountered their Protestant counterparts as both sought to evangelize the African native. Encounters between Jesuits and Protestants in Africa, edited by Robert Alexander Maryks and Festo Mkenda, S.J., presents critical reflections on the nature of those encounters in southern Africa and in Ethiopia, Madagascar, the Democratic Republic of Congo, and Fernando Po. Though largely marked by mutual suspicion and outright competition, the encounters also reveal personal appreciations and support across denominational boundaries and thus manifest salient lessons for ecumenical encounters even in our own time. This volume is the result of the second Boston College International Symposium on Jesuit Studies held at the Jesuit Historical Institute in Africa (Nairobi, Kenya) in 2016. Thanks to generous support of the Institute for Advanced Jesuit Studies at Boston College, it is available in Open Access.

Book excerpt: With an introduction by award-winning novelist Barbara Kingsolver In the late nineteenth century, when the great powers in Europe were tearing Africa apart and seizing ownership of land for themselves, King Leopold of Belgium took hold of the vast and mostly unexplored territory surrounding the Congo River. In his devastatingly barbarous colonization of this area, Leopold stole its rubber and ivory, pummelled its people and set up a ruthless regime that would reduce the population by half. . While he did all this, he carefully constructed an image of himself as a deeply feeling humanitarian. Winner of the Duff Cooper Prize in 1999, King Leopold’s Ghost is the true and haunting account of this man’s brutal regime and its lasting effect on a ruined nation. It is also the inspiring and deeply moving account of a handful of missionaries and other idealists who travelled to Africa and unwittingly found themselves in the middle of a gruesome holocaust. Instead of turning away, these brave few chose to stand up against Leopold. Adam Hochschild brings life to this largely untold story and, crucially, casts blame on those responsible for this atrocity.
