Campo, Committee Chair June 2018 Protestant Missions, Seminaries and the Academic Study of Islam in the United States Copyright © 2018 by Caleb D. McCarthy iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS While the production of a dissertation is commonly idealized as a solitary act of scholarly virtuosity, the reality might be better expressed with slight emendation to the oft- quoted proverb, “it takes a village to write a dissertation.” This particular dissertation at least exists only in light of the significant support I have received over the years. To my dissertation committee Ann Taves, Kathleen Moore and, especially, advisor Juan Campo, I extend my thanks for their productive advice and critique along the way. They are the most prominent among many faculty members who have encouraged my scholarly development. I am also indebted to the Council on Information and Library Research of the Andrew C. Mellon Foundation, which funded the bulk of my archival research – without their support this project would not have been possible. Likewise, I am grateful to the numerous librarians and archivists who guided me through their collections – in particular, UCSB’s retired Middle East librarian Meryle Gaston, and the Near East School of Theology in Beriut’s former librarian Christine Linder.

  • Atlantis and Cargate
    Atlantis and Cargate John Pritchard The Atlantis Press and the Cargate Press were established by WMMS in the 1920s. Atlantis published for overseas consumption and Cargate for a home readership. The Appendices list all the books published under the Atlantis and Cargate imprints which I have been able to identify. I cannot be sure that either list is exhaustive.1 Atlantis The WMMS General Committee in May 1922 minuted: “It is proposed to supply Christian Literature to West Africa, and to ask Conference to appoint the Revd W T Balmer MA BD2 in this connection, to work under the direction of the Committee, the cost of stipend and rent to be borne for the first year by an anonymous friend. The Committee agreed.”3 William Turnbull Balmer (1866-1928) entered the Wesleyan ministry in 1899). He was a missionary in several places in West Africa, a teacher, a linguist and a writer. Revered as a wise and sympathetic headmaster in Freetown and Cape Coast, he later set up co-operative ministerial training with the Anglican CMS at Fourah Bay College in Sierra Leone. He learned several African languages and his last assignment was in Cote d’Ivoire where, in his sixties, he embarked on the Adjukru tongue, helping to refine a script and to translate Mark’s Gospel. This was after he had been compelled by ill health to return to England, and subsequently been set apart for literature work; he died shortly after his brief spell in Cote d’Ivoire. The grandly-named ‘West Africa Literature Society’ thus came into being in 1922 and by 1923 English language materials for West African primary schools began to appear under the Atlantis imprint.

  • Introduction: Christian “Civilizing Missions” of the Past and Present 1
    NOTES Introduction: Christian “Civilizing Missions” of the Past and Present 1. Such studies are critical of the commonly held assumption that a high degree of “participation” by local people inevitably leads to their “empowerment” (Chambers 1983, 1994; Arnstein 1969; Pretty 1995; Cornwall 1996). 2. One of the reasons for the lack of historical comparison is the appar- ently significant changes in the way the Chinese government has dealt with Christianity over time. In particular, the People’s Republic of China (PRC) expelled Christian missionaries from the country in 1953. Since this time, foreign religious activity has been strictly con- trolled. However, despite these controls, since the late 1980s, interna- tional aid and development NGOs have been working in China, and many of them are either explicitly Christian in their orientation or affiliated with Christianity in some way. 3. In this regard, Rosemary Foot (2000) and Ann Kent (1999) provide representative studies from an international relations perspective. Foot (2000) explores the process of the diffusion of the interna- tional human rights norm in China and the importance of the notion of “global community” to China. Kent (1999) investigates China’s gradual socialization into the international human rights regime. 4. Also see Oakes’ (1995) discussion of “internal colonialism” and Schein’s (1997) discussion of “internal orientalism” in a Chinese context. 5. The main focus is on the interaction between international Christian agencies and ethnic communities in China, although the study also takes into account the importance of the Chinese central and local governments when and where appropriate. During the Maoist era, the Chinese central and local governments were deeply enmeshed in ethnic communities, a fact that has left an indelible mark on the col- lective consciousness within the communities.

  • I Would Like to Dedicate This Book To
    The Newsletter of the Camelford and Week St. Mary Circuit 12/20 Bethel, Boscastle, Bossiney, Brockhill, Camelford, Delabole, Living Water, Maxworthy, Rehoboth, St. Breward, St. Teath, St. Tudy, Tintagel, Tremail, Tresparrett, Treveighan, Week St. Mary Happy new year everyone! I pray we are all up to the challenges that it will bring. I will face the challenge of being a supernumerary; you will have the challenge of a new minister, a new way of ‘being Circuit’ and the challenge of finding ways to be relevant in the twenty first century while standing firm on the basic tenets of the Christian faith. That, I think, is the key factor. We are not here just to serve the material needs of our communities (although we do aim to do that) but to challenge people spiritually and to be living witnesses to the power and the wonder and the love of God. The early Methodists challenged each other regularly with the question, ‘How is it with your soul?’’ I don’t think we ask that question even of ourselves anywhere near enough. How is it with your soul? Does your awareness of God’s call on your life increase with each passing day? Are you aware of what it really means to follow Jesus? Is being a Christian the most important thing in your life? Is it in mine? And if any of us answers, ‘No, not really!’ - then what are we going to do about it? This month we will hopefully all be attending Covenant Services and renewing our covenant relationships with God.

    Missionary life writing: constructing a self – denied. Mary Jennifer Brooks Bachelor of Arts (Hons) Australian Catholic University School of Arts Faculty of Education and Arts A thesis submitted in total fulfilment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2018 Declaration This thesis contains no material that has been extracted in whole or in part from a thesis that I have submitted towards the award of any other degree or diploma in any other tertiary institution. No other person’s work has been used without due acknowledgement in the main text of the thesis. ……………………………………… i Statement of Appreciation I owe a debt of thanks to many people who have made this thesis possible. Firstly, I wish to express my heartfelt thanks to my supervisor, Dr Marguerite Nolan, for her abiding patience, encouragement and intellectual insight. Many conversations with her have helped to clarify my thinking and point me in new directions, and with her level of investment in my work I have not felt alone. Above all, she has been an inspiring example to follow. I would also like to thank Professor Shurlee Swain, my co-supervisor, for her eminently sage advice and encouragement, as well as my associate-supervisor until recently, Dr Fiona Davis, whose keen eye for detail has been greatly appreciated. The recent addition of Dr Margaret Hutchison has been an added source of advice and encouragement that has made this journey worthwhile. In addition, I would like to thank Associate Professor Simon Ryan for his early encouragement and guidance. My colleagues in the ACU Postgraduates Association have been an ongoing source of moral and practical support and I thank them for experiencing the journey with me.

  • 2017 12 December Camelfordian
    EDITORIAL I was chatting to a friend from Up Country who was complaining that it didn't feel very Christmassy in her area (just outside Lon- don). I sent her a list of the treats we have in store over the next month and she was blown away. I also sent her a selfie of me wearing my Christmas hat. She reminded me of just how lucky we are to have such a close and proactive community. And we should all remember just how much of the organising is car- ried out by volunteers. Finally, I would like to thank Bob and Clare for all their hard work, Phil Tucker for being such an amazing printer, and our advertisers for keeping us going.

  • Proceedings Wesley Historical Society
    Proceedings OF THE Wesley Historical Society Editor: E. ALAN ROSE, B.A. Volume XLIII September 1982 METHODIST UNION HIS article is intended to give the general reader (of whom there are many in our Society) a broad view of the events lead­ T ing to Methodist Union in 1932. It is not a scholarly essay; no original research has gone into its preparation; no new discoveries are announced, no startling revelations to disturb or excite a waiting world. As I began my ministry in the year that Union took place, I am one of a dwindling band who can draw on memory as well as history to recall what it meant, fifty years ago, to be a Wesleyan, a Primitive or a United Methodist. Should the aforesaid" general reader" desire to learn more about the Union negotiations, he is recommended to turn to John Kent's The Age of Disunity (1966), Robert Currie's Methodism Divided (1968), or John T. Wilkinson's Arthur Samuel Peake (1971). I write before the publication of Rupert Davies's Conference Lecture on Methodist Union, but I have had by me his essay The Church ill our Times (1979). I am still old-fashioned enough to suppose that the masculine in­ cludes the feminine, so when I use the term "layman" or its pronoun in a general sense, I include" laywoman". There is no need to invent the clumsy word " lay person ". I. Union implies division Methodist Union can be understood only against the background of its divisions, numerous and complicated though they be. Some of these were secessions which wounded and diminished the parent body, for they were protests against its polity and procedure.

  • Wesley Historical Society Editor: REV
    Proceedings OF THE Wesley Historical Society Editor: REV. JOHN C. BOWMER, M.A., B.O. Volume XXXV June 1965 A NOTE UPON THE STATE OF THE CHURCH IN NORTH DEVON AT THE TIME OF THE EARLY BIBLE CHRISTIANS HE deplorably low state of the Church in the Georgian era is so widely accepted as a fact that it is commonly held to need T no verification, and in no part of Britain is it thought to have been lower than in North Devon, where the Bible Christian move­ ment began in 1815.1 So universally accepted is this judgement of the Church of the period that it is with surprise, and at first with in­ credulity, that one comes upon evidence of spiritual life. It is inherently improbable that the age was in fact as bad as has been represented, and that, for instance, of the 127 parishes of the Barnstaple archdeaconry in only one or two was there any approach to religious ministry. The clergy were required to read the services of the Book of Common Prayer, including long passages from the Bible, and were thus constantly reminded of the facts of sin and re­ demption, of the means of grace, and of the hope of glory. Did these repeated words fall almost always on deaf ears? It is well known that Charles Simeon (1759-1836) owed his conversion to the fact that he found himself required, as an undergraduate of King's Col­ lege, Cambridge, to receive the Holy Communion in chapel. He prepared himself by reading Bishop Wilson's Short and Plain In­ struction for the better understanding of the Lord's Supper.
