Very heartily do I commend it to the earnest and prayerful con sideration of every student of missions. Dr. A. H. Smith is known to us in China as one of our ablest and most eloquent writers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Development of China The eyes of the world are more and more turned toward China. We are coming to be profoundly interested in the fate of that greatest of Asiatic peoples. And it is well that we are. No other existing nation can look back over as long a past of continuous development as can China. When the foundations of Greece and Rome were being laid and when the great Hebrew prophets were in the midst of their ministry, a nation was being shaped and a civilization formed which have come down through the centuries with a comparatively unbroken history. There have been changes, but none of them as violent as those which have shaken the West during the same period. Only two other cultural groups - that in India and that in the Mediterranean Basin - have had as dominant an influence over as large a section of mankind.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Awakening of China My own conviction is clear that the United States will dominate the civilization of this great nation, not only on account of her geographical position, her resources, and her energy; but also because the Chinese themselves in breaking away from an ancient civilization can readily be led to accept a western, Christian, Protestant civilization. One can better understand why the Chinese are turning to western civilization by considering China's deep and crying needs.

Download or read book The Evolution of New China Classic Reprint written by William Nesbitt Brewster and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Evolution of New China The substance of the following pages was given to the students of the Theological School of Boston University in a series of addresses in November, 1904. The students and others ex pressed a desire to have them in more permanent and fuller form than their notes. They were not delivered from manuscript. The task of te writing has been a slow one, not only, nor, perhaps, chiefly because of lack of time from the life of a busy missionary, but because the changes in China have been so rapid and sweeping during the last three years that any utterance except prophecy is almost sure to be out of date by the time it reaches the American public, unless it is telegraphed and published in a daily newspaper. So that there is no intention to make this little volume a vehicle of news. The periodical and daily press must be relied upon for that. There is, however, an at tempt to discuss the trend of events, and to indi cate the direction of the Eastern breezes by a few straws here and there.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from China Revolutionized All these questions presented themselves when the re formers startled the world with the announcement that there was to be a republic in China. Lit was to be a republic - not a monarchy said even those Chinese who had been educated in Japan, where lately a Japanese editor educated in America and ten pthers had been tried and executed in secret, the papers sealed, and the press censored. They wanted pitiless publicity in the new republican China. Had there been no abatement of the Opium habit through Amer ica's leadership Of sentiment, and Britain's sacrifice of rev enue from 1909 to 1911, there could have been no rebellion in 1911. The reform cleared the befogged heads of the nation, added a million men to agitation, and furnished a hundred million dollars directly and indirectly toward the independence Of the agitators.

Download or read book Envelope Series Quarterly Vol 10 written by Charles E. Ewing and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-12-09 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Envelope Series (Quarterly), Vol. 10: What Congregationalists Are Doing for the Uplift of China; October, 1907 This number of the Envelope Series will serve as a sort of guide book of Congregational mis sions in China. Anyone desiring to know what we are doing. In that great empire will find an accurate and condensed account in these papers. The work has grown so vast and, at the same time, complex under modern missionary condi tions, that such a setting forth is necessary for all among us who watch the growth of the King dom. An added reason is the reconstruction of the work in the North China Mission since the Boxer uprising in 1900. With the exception of Pang Chuang the property at every station was destroyed. The splendid new buildings which have arisen on the ashes of the old attest how rapid and glorious has been the recovery. Conditions, too, in China are so altogether new, that the time is ripe for a fresh setting forth of what the American Board is doing. The authors of the five articles are in the very forefront of the great movements now going on for the uplift of China and we wish to convey to them in this way the thanks of all who read, for the pains they have taken in the midst of their many labors, to enlighten us at home, as to the share Congregationalists are taking in this greatest missionary undertaking of modern times, if not of all times.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of China, Vol. 1 IT is unnecessary for me to detain the reader with any lengthy remarks by way of introduction to this history. The Chinese Empire presents for our con sideration one of the most complicated of existing problems; and the subject is of growing rather than waning importance. In 'dealing with its history we are not discussing the fortunes of some Empire that has long disappeared, nor are we seeking to discern the future of a race that has lost or forgotten the capacity of government; but we are treating of a stat-e and a people that apparently were never, during the long course of their national existence, more powerful and flourishing than they are at this very day.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from China in Transformation The first edition of China in Transformation appeared in 1898, at a time when signs of renascence were Obvious only to those who had the opportunity to look below the surface. The author's first imten tion in bringing out the present edition was merely to preserve those parts which appear to have a permanent value, but in practice it was found difficult to adhere to this, and the result is a book, of which many chapters are strictly new, while all have been carefully revised and brought up to date. If it appears that rather undue proportion is given to the history of the middle of last century, and especially to the diplomatic and commercial relations of that period, it must be' explained that the material for this was obtained by the author in 1897 from original sources no longer available either to the student or the general reader. For this reason, this portion has only been Slightly cur tailed, in order to fit into the general perspective.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Fight for the Republic in China This volume tells everything that the student or the casual reader needs to know about the Chinese Question. It is sufficiently exhaustive to show very clearly the new forces at work, and to bring some realisation of the great gulf which separates the thinking classes of to-day from the men of a few years ago; whilst, at the same time, it is sufficiently condensed not to overwhelm the reader with too great a multitude of facts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Chinese Revolution A new China is emerging. Whatever may be the immediate developments, however short or long the process of readjustment, We cannot doubt the outcome. This book is not, of course, intended to be a final account of either the process or the result, but an aid to the study of the large out standing causes and of their operation thus far. These causes are clear, and a knowledge of them is indispensable to an understanding of the extra ordinary significance of the reconstruction which is now taking place. I have used some parts of my former and larger book, New Forces in Old China, which are applicable to present conditions and the scope of this little book - the publishers, The Fleming H. Revell Company, having given their approval. This material, however, has been readjusted, wherever necessary, and brought down to date. Considerable new matter has been added, so that this book is intended to be a separate one representing the present situation.
