Download or read book The Western Christian Presence in the Russias and Q j r Persia c 1760 c 1870 written by Thomas O'Flynn and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-08-28 with total page 1141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of The 2018 Saidi-Sirjani Book Award In The Western Christian Presence in the Russias and Qājār Persia, c.1760–c.1870, Thomas O'Flynn vividly paints the life and times of missionary enterprises in early nineteenth-century Russia and Persia at a moment of immense change when Tsarist Russia embarked on an expansionist campaign reaching to the Caucasus. Simultaneously he charts the relationship between the new Persian dynasty of the Qājārs and missionary activity on the part of European and American missionaries. This book reconstructs that world from a predominantly religious perspective. It recounts the sustaining ideals as well as the everyday struggles of the western missionaries, Protestant (Scottish, Basel and American Congregationalist) and Catholic (Jesuit and Vincentian). It looks at the reactions of diverse tribal peoples, the Tatars of the North Caucasus, the Kabardians and Circassians. Persia was the ultimate goal of these missionaries, which they eventually reached in the 1820s. Altogether this study throws light on the troubled course of history in West Asia and provides the background to politico-religious conflicts in Chechnya and Persia that persist to the present day.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eighteenth and nineteenth century European, British and American newspapers constitute a rich and largely untapped source of contemporary, often eyewitness accounts of historical events and opinions concerning Iran from the late Safavid (1712) through the Qajar (c. 1797-1920) period. This study collects and annotates thousands of articles published in the Colonial and early Republican American newspapers, from the first mention of events in Persia in the American press (1712) to the death of Mohammad Shah (1848), unlocking for the first time a wealth of information on Iran and its place in the world during the 18th and early 19th century.

Book excerpt: Oxford, Bern, Berlin, Bruxelles, Frankfurt/M., New York, Wien, 2002. North American Studies in 19th-Century German Literature. Vol. 32 General Editor: Jeffrey L. Sammons During the month of October 1816, San Francisco received a visit from the Russian brig Rurik, only the third non-Spanish vessel to call at what was then a small colonial garrison and mission town on the extreme edge of Spanish North America. In this book the author provides English translations of reports of the visit (originally in German and French) by the ship's captain Otto von Kotzebue, naturalist Adelbert von Chamisso, and on-board artist Louis Choris. Eleven illustrations by Choris are also reproduced, including celebrated scenes and portraits of California mission Indians. Edward Mornin provides biographical sketches of the three reporters, a historical account of Rurik's round-the-world voyage, and a critical discussion of the observations of Kotzebue, Chamisso, and Choris, with their ideological and cultural determinants, especially with regard to the Indians under the control of the Spanish missionaries. The book shows how the narrative accounts of Kotzebue, Chamisso, and Choris, together with Choris's graphic record, continue to fascinate not only for their engaging portrayal of San Francisco's early inhabitants and the circumstances of their lives, but as shadow portraits of the reporters themselves and of the European cultures that produced them. Contents: Visit of Russian ship Rurik to San Francisco in 1816 - Translated reports of captain (Otto von Kotzebue), naturalist (Adelbert von Chamisso), and on-board artist (Louis Choris) - Reproductions of illustrations by Choris - Account of Rurik'sround-the-world voyage - Biographical sketches of Kotzebue, Chamisso, and Choris - Discussion of their views on Spanish colonial garrison and mission, mission Indians, soldiers and missionaries - Postcolonial assessment of reports and reporters.

Download or read book Raising Young Children in an Alaskan Inupiaq Village written by Julie E. Sprott and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2002-12-30 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive, case study portrait of the childrearing context of a predominantly Eskimo village in the remote Northwest Arctic, designed to look for evidence of reinvention, transformation, or conscious choice as process features of change in the mix of traditional childrearing beliefs and practices with infusions from the dominant culture. The rearing environment and child well-being were studied during 18 months of anthropological fieldwork in an Alaskan Inupiaq village in the Northwest Arctic. Volunteers for the sample consisted of 44 adults from 16 extended families who were raising a child between the ages of three and six years. Results from guided interviews, card sorts, standardized family and home assessments, and review of the children's medical records revealed a complex portrait of culture continuity and change and included the following trends: • many traditions had been retained, even though villagers perceived few differences in their rearing style compared to that of mainstream culture • despite the presence of other households with extended family members in the village and touting of the value of kinship, 25% of core families reared their children in relative isolation • growth measurements, immunization status, and general health of the children were good, but children evidenced diets high in sugar and many suffered severe dental problems • present-day caregivers were engaged in dialogue about problem parenting behaviors that had developed a generation earlier during a time of massive acculturation stress and population growth—namely, the overuse of scolding of children without attached explanations and overt favoring of specific children over others in the family. The study presents present-day rearing strategies and ideas as summarized from interviews and data from more formal instruments, and frames changes in the system within the broader historical/social context.
