Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Japan Christian Year Book, 1936: Continuing the Japan Mission Year Book, Being the Thirty-Fourth Issue of the Christian Movement in Japan and Formosa This thirty-fourth issue of the annual publica tion of the Federation of Christian Missions in Japan is presented to the public with the modest hope that it may take a worthy place in the long series of efforts to record the most significant events of the years as they have come and gone, and especially as they have concerned the Chris tian Movement. The times through which Japan is now passing are indeed important. And what they may mean for the future, who can tell? In any case, the Editors hope that an honest effort to set forth present trends and current situations may help to spread abroad knowledge which in turn may aid in the development of a Christian civilization. Gratitude is due to all those who have had a share in the making of this book, especially to those who are not directly related to the Federa tion of Christian Missions. The drudgery which certain portions of the book demands of those who are kind enough to consent to undertake such labors, is understood only by those who have had the experience. But work well done has its own incorruptible reward. That the book is not all that it should be, and that it has many shortcomings 'is well known to the Editor. Therefore, gentle reader, let us seek to gether a more adequate Year Book and a more Christian Japan. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Christianity in Korea written by Robert E. Buswell, Jr. and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2007-05-31 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the significance of Korea in world Christianity and the crucial role Christianity plays in contemporary Korean religious life, the tradition has been little studied in the West. Christianity in Korea seeks to fill this lacuna by providing a wide-ranging overview of the growth and development of Korean Christianity and the implications that development has had for Korean politics, interreligious dialogue, and gender and social issues. The volume begins with an accessibly written overview that traces in broad outline the history and development of Christianity on the peninsula. This is followed by chapters on broad themes, such as the survival of early Korean Catholics in a Neo-Confucian society, relations between Christian churches and colonial authorities during the Japanese occupation, premillennialism, and the theological significance of the division and prospective reunification of Korea. Others look in more detail at individuals and movements, including the story of the female martyr Kollumba Kang Wansuk; the influence of Presbyterianism on the renowned nationalist Ahn Changho; the sociopolitical and theological background of the Minjung Protestant Movement; and the success and challenges of Evangelical Protestantism in Korea. The book concludes with a discussion of how best to encourage a rapprochement between Buddhism and Christianity in Korea.
