Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A new and expansive official history of the USPG commissioned to mark the tercentenary in 2001. The first half tells a compelling global story from the mission to the Americas in the 18th century, through the North China Mission in the late 19th century to today's Social Development Programme in Bangladesh. There is a particular focus on the post-1945 period of decolonization, development and dialogue with other religions. The second half is a collection of essays that give a wide range of themes and perspective from a history of missionary wives by Deborah Kirkwood to a discussion of the evolving role of the church in Zambia by Musonda Mwamba.Three Centuries of Mission emphasizes the key instrumentality of the USPG in the emergence of a worldwide network of Churches in the Anglican Communion and their significance in the world at the beginning of the new century.

Book A Social History of Christianity

Download or read book A Social History of Christianity written by John C.B. Webster and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-12-22 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Christian community in India emerged from an Indian rather than a foreign or an imperial context. Its internal dynamics were shaped far more by Indian social realities than by missionary designs. This book presents a comprehensive social history of Christianity in north-west India, comprising Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Punjab, Haryana, the Union Territories of Delhi and Chandigarh, and the Pakistani Punjab and North-West Frontier Province. The book discusses significant events in the history of the north-west up to 1947, after which it focuses only on India. These events left a lasting impact on Christianity and shaped its future course, culminating in the transfer of churches’ power from foreign missionaries to Indians and proliferation of churches, and the ongoing struggles of the Christian community. The author pays special attention to the Christian community’s caste composition—how caste status and social mobility affected intra- and inter-community relations—religious diversity, uneven demographic distribution, and development, as well as Christianity as a religious movement in the region.

Book History of Science  Technology  Environment  and Medicine in India

Download or read book History of Science Technology Environment and Medicine in India written by Suvobrata Sarkar and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2021-11-29 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume studies the concept and relevance of HISTEM (History of Science, Technology, Environment, and Medicine) in shaping the histories of colonial and postcolonial South Asia. Tracing its evolution from the establishment of the East India Company through to the early decades after the Independence of India, it highlights the ways in which the discipline has changed over the years and examines the various influences that have shaped it. Drawing on extensive case studies, the book offers valuable insights into diverse themes such as the East–West encounter, appropriation of new knowledge, science in translation and communication, electricity and urbanization, the colonial context of engineering education, science of hydrology, oil and imperialism, epidemic and empire, vernacular medicine, gender and medicine, as well as environment and sustainable development in the colonial and postcolonial milieu. An indispensable text on South Asia’s experience of modernity in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, this book will be of interest to scholars and researchers of modern South Asian studies, modern Indian history, sociology, history of science, cultural studies, colonialism, as well as studies on Science, Technology, and Society (STS).

Book Cambridge Mission to Delhi  in Connexion With the S  P  G

Download or read book Cambridge Mission to Delhi in Connexion With the S P G written by G. A. Lefroy and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-13 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cambridge Mission to Delhi, in Connexion With the S. P. G: General Review of Work Since, 1881 I. St Sfep/zm's Scfiool and College. This must necessarily take the first place, not only because it always has occupied such in our own thoughts and plans for our work, but also and still more because the experience of each year is telling us, I believe, more and more that in no other way have we, at any rate as yet, got into such vital touch with any section of the people, in no other way can one get the same opportunities of persistent progressive and, as one must needs believe, irresistible influence as we do get with our pupils and students in School and College. You know, I believe, that I am myself rather drawing off from this kind of work and trying to get, by Bazar preaching, ordinary intercourse or whatever means, among the adults of the town, especially those who have not been touched by English education and whom one has to reach wholly through Urdu. I speak therefore as one in no sense committed to this special educational work. And yet I never return to it, after some break in teaching (as I did for instance this morning for the first time after my return from England) without feeling that in no other place or way do I get the same opportunity of closest personal touch with and influence on minds just in the most receptive and favourable conditions. The more too one comes to realise the extraordinary degree to which, in many respects, the people of India have become demoralized and have lost their hold on many of the most elemen tary principles of right and wrong, the more one sees how essential it is not only to preach the saving truths of Christ but to recreate as far as possible the entire character and tone and mental standpoint. Idolatry, pantheism, fatalism and many more equally injurious habits of thought or action seem to have weakened the whole moral faculties and obscured the most elementary moral perceptions to a degree which it is difficult for us often to realise or believe. To take an instance of the simplest kind. Any day talking in the Bazar if one brings up as against the Hindu the wickedness, the follies and im moralities of Krishna, one of the best known and most widely recognised Incarnations of the popular worship, one is met at once by the reply, given in utter simplicity and complaisance of mind.
