ECM Collections of the Revd. Kenneth Cracknell for the World Mission ECM Collections of the Revd. Kenneth Cracknell for the World Mission Conference, Edinbugh 1910 and on 19th-century missionaries 259 items, 1969-1992 Apparently presented c.1994-1997, probably at the time of Mr. Cracknell’s generous ‘permanent loan’ of 600 volumes of his collection of missionary books for the Henry Martyn Library (Acc. 19/20) Catalogued by Graham Kings and Sue Sutton 2001-03; introduction added and new top level description by Philip Saunders April 2017 Kenneth Cracknell (b.1935) is a Methodist minister who began his career in Nigeria through the Methodist Church Overseas Division, then served as Director of Interfaith Relations in the British Council of Churches 1978-87. From 1987 or 1988 to 1996 or 1997 he held the Michael Gutteridge Chair in Theology and the position of Senior Tutor at Wesley House, Cambridge. In this period he was evidently frequently in touch with Revd Graham Kings, Henry Martyn Lecturer in Missiology (first Director of the Henry Martyn Centre) and appears to have made the original suggestion, in 1992, supported by Mr Kings (GRK 8/53p.3), to bring together on one site the HM Library books with those from his own ‘large personal collection’ and mission books from the four Federation colleges. The last element of happened only in part, but the Trust’s books were moved to a Westminster College in Autumn 1995 and were then or shortly after joined by Cracknell’s books and in 1997 250 volumes from Ridley Hall, where Kings had had his office. The present papers probably arrived simultaneously with the printed books (catalogued by Philippa Mahood in 1995); ECM 1 was definitely there by August 1994 (GRK 8/84, p.3). ECM 2-3 probably arrived at the same time as ECM 1 and ECM 4-92 arrived later as they were separately listed (and the digital list accidentally deleted). ECM 93, a roll of microfilm was not published until 1997, and may not have come via Cracknell at all but has been placed by it on grounds of content. It is hoped the chronology of the deposit will become clearer in due course. The original version of this catalogue, simply as a collection of material for the E[dinburgh] C[onference on] M[ission] did not recognize Cracknell’s part in assembling this material or its relationship to his work beyond stating he had donated it. Shortly afterwards Cracknell left Cambridge to take up the post of Professor of Theology and Global Studies (later appointed Distinguished Professor) at Brite Divinity School, Texas Christian University, Fort Worth, Texas. 1 These photocopies of documents about the World Mission Conference, commonly called ‘Edinburgh 1910’ and of publications by or about missionaries who reported their encounters with other faiths to it were the main source material for Kenneth Cracknell’s magnum opus, Justice, Courtesy and Love. Theologians and Missionaries Encountering World Religions 1846-1914 (1995; CCCW Library 291 CRA). In summary the collection comprises: ECM 1 Photocopies of responses to the questionnaires on mission sent out to missionaries throughout the world for the Edinburgh conference in the archives of the World Council of Churches, Geneva. The copies of these returns are referred to in the preface to Justice, Courtesy and Love (p.xi) as Cracknell’s ‘constant companions in my reflections’ since his first acquaintance with them on a visit to the Library of the WCC in 1978. They are contained within folders arranged alphabetically by surname, some with manuscript notes by Cracknell and in a few cases photocopies of publications relating to the subject. Areas covered : New Guinea, China, Manchuria, Japan, Burma, Thailand, Java, Celebes, India, Ceylon, Baluchistan, South Africa, Zululand, West Africa, Uganda, Northern Nigeria, Persia, Aden, Muscat, Bahrain, Beirut, Egypt, Palestine, Turkey (Asian and European), Bulgaria, Paraguay ECM 2 Two articles relating to the World Mission Conference 1910. ECM 3 Correspondence, mainly between J H. Oldham and John R. Mott concerning the organisation of the conference from originals in the archive of the Mission Research Collection of the Burke Library of the Union Theological Seminary, Columbia University – see http://library.columbia.edu/content/dam/libraryweb/locations/burke/fa/mrl/ldpd_6306 815.pdf ECM 4 -92 Mainly photocopies of articles or chapters of books on mission, specific missionaries, especially those whose replies are contained within ECM 1, or theologians with an emphasis on the interface of Christianity with other religions; including intermixed some notes by Kenneth Cracknell. Arranged alphabetically either by author or by subject. Originally separately catalogued and the digital version of the catalogue accidentally deleted. When this is rectified it would be best to totally re-arrange in order to separate Cracknell’s notes and to list consistently either by author, subject or date and to place in a separate series, ECM 4/1-xx. ECM 93 Microfilm published 1997 entitled “World Missionary conference in Edinburgh. Original manuscripts, documents, letters, commission reports relating to the various aspects of Christian Missions in countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America.’ Produced by Burke Library of the Union Theological Seminary, Columbia University (see above ECM 3). 2 ECM 1.

  • Christian Education and the Construction of Female Gentility in Modern East Asia
    religions Article Christian Education and the Construction of Female Gentility in Modern East Asia Jeesoon Hong Department of Chinese Culture, Sogang University, Seoul 04107, Korea; [email protected] Received: 30 June 2019; Accepted: 1 August 2019; Published: 6 August 2019 Abstract: This study explores the relationship between Christian education and the construction of female gentility in East Asia around the turn of the twentieth century. Because American missionary schools played an important role in the region, notions of female gentility were greatly influenced by the cultural values of the American middle class and, more specifically, American liberal arts colleges. The notion of the “new gentlewoman” helps to illuminate modern Protestant womanhood’s ambiguous relationship with feminism and nationalism. Recognizing that the Protestant notion of “female gentility” was internally racialized, in this study, I also pay attention to the question of race. While the scope of my research spans East Asia, in this paper, I examine Christian education in China, focusing specifically on Yenching Women’s College. I compare the college’s educational goals and curricula to the pedagogy at the male college of Yenching, the governmental women’s college, and other female colleges in Japan and Korea. In this study, I approach East Asia as a whole for several reasons: first, because a broader view of the region helps put the Chinese case into perspective; second, because the region was often dealt with together in missionary work; and lastly, because national differences cannot be assumed to be more substantial than other differences, such as those based on gender, class, generation, period, and province.

  • Mission Studies As Evangelization and Theology for World Christianity
    Mission Studies as Evangelization and Teology for World Christianity Refections on Mission Studies in Britian and Ireland, 2000 - 2015 Kirsteen Kim DOI: 10.7252/Paper. 000051 About the Author Kirsteen Kim, Ph.D., is Professor of Teology and World Christianity at Leeds Trinity University. Kirsteen researches and teaches theology from the perspective of mission and world Christianity, drawing on her experience of Christianity while living and working in South Korea, India and the USA, with a special interest in theology of the Holy Spirit. She publishes widely and is the editor of Mission Studies, the journal of the International Association for Mission Studies. 72 | Mission Studies as Evangelization and Theology for World Christianity Foreword In 2000 and in 2012 I published papers for the British and Irish Association for Mission Studies (BIAMS) on mission studies in Britain and Ireland, which were published in journals of theological education.1 Tese two papers surveyed the state of mission studies and how in this region it is related to various other disciplines. Each paper suggested a next stage in the development of mission studies: the frst saw mission studies as facilitating a worldwide web of missiological discussion; the second suggested that mission studies should be appreciated as internationalizing theology more generally. Tis article reviews the developments in Britain and Ireland over the years which are detailed in these articles and bring them up to date. It further argues that, while continuing to develop as “mission studies” or “missiology”, the discipline should today claim the names “theology for world Christianity” and “studies in evangelization.

  • Christianity Transmission History and Contemporary Situation in China
    IOSR Journal of Business and Management (IOSR-JBM) e-ISSN: 2278-487X, p-ISSN: 2319-7668. Volume 18, Issue 6 .Ver. IV (Jun. 2016), PP 14-20 www.iosrjournals.org Christianity Transmission History and Contemporary Situation in China Ruihui Han1, 1Humanities School, Jinan University, Zhuhai, Guangdong Province, China. Abstract: The Christianity is transmitted with faster speed than ever in recent years in China. The Christianity transmission in China has long history and many setbacks, especially in modern history of China. The missionaries tried different ways to propagate such religion and had little achievement, even such transmission incurred the slaughter. But after the reforming and opening policy, the Christianity is accepted more easily in China. The main form of the Christianity church is the house church, and the believers in the countryside accounts for the most part of the whole believers. There is increasing interest in the house church and Christianity in countryside, and those are also the key to understand the Christianity transmission in contemporary China. Keywords: Christianity; transmission; church house; rural areas; Boxer Rebellion. I. Introduction In the end of 19th century, the American missionary Arthur Henderson Smith published his Chinese Characteristics and believed that thespread of Christianity in Chinese countryside would bring about a series of positive changes in Chinese countryside. After 100 years, the spread of Christianity were fast and very popular. In the population of the Chinese Christians, 80% are in the Chinese countryside. The most common form of the church is the housechurch, which is not registered in the government so that the government can not supervise it effectively.

  • 117 American Methodism
    Methodist History, 52:2 (January 2014) AMERICAN METHODISM: A COMPACT HISTORY, DENOMINATIONAL HISTORY, AND AN AUTHOR’S RESPONSE RUSSELL E. RICHEY (ON BEHALF OF KENNETH E. ROWE AND JEAN MILLER SCHMIDT) I want to address two substantive critiques that are offered in Benjamin Hartley’s review of our American Methodism: A Compact History, as well as the other two volumes in this project (Methodist History 51.4 [July 2013]: 292-294). These revolve around the title that Abingdon gave the book, both reflective of the approach we have taken in our three volumes, and both quite legitimate issues. My coauthors endorse this reply to the review. Hartley offers the critiques that we chose to focus on North American rather than world-wide Methodism (requiring, of course, attention to Meth- odism’s missionary spread) and that we treat African American Methodist and holiness churches only through their founding and not in their subse- quent development. He is certainly correct that our volume concerns “North American/U.S. United Methodism and its Predecessor Denominations.” Could we have fit the history of global Methodism and the array of Meth- odist-Wesleyan bodies into 250 pages? Perhaps. It took Emory S. Bucke’s collaborators three 700 page volumes (The History of American Methodism) a half century ago and they gave slight treatment to the smaller Methodist churches. And the Methodist/United Methodist missionary history series runs to eleven volumes, each lengthy. The synthetic Wesleyan/Methodist project that Dr. Hartley calls for is certainly a worthy one and Susan White and Kenneth Cracknell have shown the way with their quite manageable An Introduction to World Methodism.
