Many of my colleagues in the fi eld have had direct experiences of missionary work, or they may have been brought up in a family where the parents served as missionaries, or they may have received some of their edu- cation at a mission school. I do not share this background. Yet, I still can recall that, as a child, it was my worst fear that I was to become a missionary. How could this have happened? I realise, of course, that the subject of missionary work was present when I was brought up during the 1970s. Both my parents, now sadly lost, had been brought up in a spirit of fervent Protestant revivalism. I still can recall how my paternal grandmother, a Pentecostal, did her best to nourish a missionary spirit when she came and visited us; my maternal grandmother, who was a stalwart supporter of the Lutheran Church of Sweden, did her best to further the cause of missionary work in a more quiet way. So the theme of Christian missions is found in my background as well, and, though my vision of missionary work has changed since childhood, I would probably not have been writing this book if it would not have been for the feeling of fear and amazement instilled in me during the fi rst years of my life. A further push towards missionary studies was given by the late Lars Österlin, who had served as Professor of World Christianity at Lund University, and who generously treated me to lunches when I was a doctoral candidate. We spent pleasant hours in discussion together; I was given the opportunity to be tutored by a man who had been born by missionary parents in China and who had been supervised, in his youth, by, ‘the great’, Kenneth Scott Latourette. A more direct impact on this volume has come from Professor Yvonne Maria Werner at the Department of History at Lund University. She organised, and has since acted as congenial co-ordinator of the international ‘Christian manliness’ project within which this book was born. Generous support has been provided by the Bank of Sweden Tercentenary Foundation; the Tercentenary Foundation has also sup- ported the publication of this volume. An inspiring crowd of people have taken part in our gatherings both in Sweden and in Italy; discussions have oft en been loud and animated, but never boring and unreward- ing. Olaf Blaschke, Callum Brown, Anders Jarlert, Inger Littberger, x acknowledgements Hugh McLeod, Elin Malmer, Alexander Maurits, Marit Monteiro, Anna Prestjan and David Tjeder have all generously contributed with comments on my early draft s. In addition to these valued colleagues a number of experts in the fi elds of World Christianity, Sinology and Imperial studies have contributed with advise or detailed commentary; among these Alvyn Austin, Leif Lindin, David Kerr (R.I.P.), Roy Porter, Dana Robert, Rhonda Anne Semple, Brian Stanley and Gary Tidemann deserves a special word of appreciation. At an early date Anna Maria Claesson, whose dissertation has made my own studies possible, gener- ously contributed with suggestions and advise. Like most works of history this book would not come into being if it would not have been for the skill and ceaseless energy of numerous librarians and archivists. Th e librarians and custodians of Cambridge University Library, Emigrantinstitutet (Växjö), Jönköpings länsmuseum, Missionskyrkans arkiv (Stockholm), Riksarkivet (Stockholm) and the archive of the School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London, have all contributed to making research trips both valuable and enjoyable. Nick Nole of the Overseas Missionary Fellowship granted per- mission to use sources from its London-based archive; Peter Meadows has authorised my use of sources housed at the Bible Society Library, Cambridge University Library. Permission to use his grandfather’s manuscripts has been granted by Per Fagerholm. Jim Larson and his cousins have with enthusiasm allowed me to make extensive use of the autobiography of ‘the Duke’; Virginia W. Hart has been equally generous in allowing me to quote from her grandmother’s unpublished letters. Axel Odelberg made available his copies of the Larson papers and spared me a trip to the US. A Swedish version of Chapter Two appeared in Yvonne Maria Werner (ed.), Kristen manlighet: ideal och verklighet 1830–1940 (Lund: Nordic Academic Press, 2008); the people at Nordic Academic Press have allowed me to reprint an English version in this volume. During the fi nal stages of my work the people at Brill stepped in with energy and expertise to turn my manuscript into a book. Ingeborg van der Laan, and later Maarten Frieswijk, did not only swift ly and cheer- fully respond to all my e-mails, but also co-ordinated the tasks needed for a book to materialise of which the present writer knows so little. Anonymous readers contributed with encouraging and insightful com- ments. Th e editors of Studies in Christian Mission deserve my gratitude for including this volume in their prestigious series. acknowledgements xi At last, I have of course to return again to those closest at heart. Without a family that off er, at the same time, both support and perspective, I would not have been able to conclude this study. In spite of hectic schedules, my in-laws, Jan and Birgitta, have given extra support dur- ing times of travel. My wife Erika has with love and patience

In spite of their small populations, these countries have made considerable contributions to the exploration of the rest of the world. Sweden and Norway, in particular, but also Denmark with its possession of Greenland, have been active exploring the Arctic and Antarctic regions, but in addition to this line of research there is a great tradition of Asian studies, which also comprises Finland. Among the geographical targets of Finnish and Scandinavian scholars in Asia, Mongolia has always occupied an important place. However, to some extent, the field of Mongolian studies in the different Nordic countries has had different backgrounds and motives. Particularly conspicuous differences exist between Finland, on the one hand, and the Scandinavian countries, on the other. The present paper summarizes the history of the field and highlights some of the results achieved.* The Beginnings of Mongolian studies in Finland Among the Nordic countries, Finland has the longest and broadest tradition in Mongolian studies. This is due to two circumstances: First, between 1809 and 1917 Finland was an autonomous Grand Duchy under the Russian Empire, and Finnish scholars were freely able to travel in the eastern parts of Russia and from there enter also Mongolia.

In spite of their small populations, these countries have made considerable contributions to the exploration of the rest of the world. Sweden and Norway, in particular, but also Denmark with its possession of Greenland, have been active exploring the Arctic and Antarctic regions, but in addition to this line of research there is a great tradition of Asian studies, which also comprises Finland. Among the geographical targets of Finnish and Scandinavian scholars in Asia, Mongolia has always occupied an important place. However, to some extent, the field of Mongolian studies in the different Nordic countries has had different backgrounds and motives.
