    © 2013 Yi-ling Lin CULTURAL ENGAGEMENT IN MISSIONARY CHINA: AMERICAN MISSIONARY NOVELS 1880-1930 BY YI-LING LIN DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Comparative Literature in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2013 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral committee: Professor Waïl S. Hassan, Chair Professor Emeritus Leon Chai, Director of Research Professor Emeritus Michael Palencia-Roth Associate Professor Robert Tierney Associate Professor Gar y G. Xu Associate Professor Rania Huntington, University of Wisconsin at Madison Abstract From a comparative standpoint, the American Protestant missionary enterprise in China was built on a paradox in cross-cultural encounters. In order to convert the Chinese—whose religion they rejected—American missionaries adopted strategies of assimilation (e.g. learning Chinese and associating with the Chinese) to facilitate their work. My dissertation explores how American Protestant missionaries negotiated the rejection-assimilation paradox involved in their missionary work and forged a cultural identification with China in their English novels set in China between the late Qing and 1930. I argue that the missionaries’ novelistic expression of that identification was influenced by many factors: their targeted audience, their motives, their work, and their perceptions of the missionary enterprise, cultural difference, and their own missionary identity. Hence, missionary novels may not necessarily be about conversion, the missionaries’ primary objective but one that suggests their resistance to Chinese culture, or at least its religion. Instead, the missionary novels I study culminate in a non-conversion theme that problematizes the possibility of cultural assimilation and identification over ineradicable racial and cultural differences.

The local gatherings are of varying sizes, from two or three to two or three thousand. Frequently the members share meals together, often before or after services which can be boisterous and participatory. Generally, no pastor, priest, or designated religious officiant presides. As the Spirit leads, different members stand to call hymns, declare verses from the Bible, give personal testimonies, or shout praises to God. But, for all their openness about their beliefs and their tireless attempts at outreach, it can be hard for outsiders to understand who these Christians are. Why do they not join existing Christian denominations? What is the basis for their identity and the institutions they create? When asked, congregants readily and happily acknowledge their fellowship and unity with other likeminded groups from around the world, but they may seem canny and evasive when asked for the name of their local church or the name of the church network as a whole.

The genotypes were evaluated in three separated rectangular 7 × 8 lattice design with two replications in three irrigation treatments including optimum irrigation, moderate stress and sever stress where irrigation was done after depletion of 50%, 70% and 90% of available water, respectively. Nine drought tolerance indices including mean productivity (MP), stress tolerance index (STI), geometric mean productivity (GMP), harmonic mean (HARM), stress non-stress production index (SNPI), yield index (YI), drought resistance index (DI), modified stress tolerance index in optimum irrigation (M PSTI), and modified stress tolerance index in moderate and severe stress (M sSTI) were calculated based on grain yield under well-watered (Y P), moderate drought stress (Y S-mild) and severe drought stress (Y S-severe) conditions. Grain yield in well-watered (YP), mild and severe stress conditions was significantly and positively correlated with MP, STI, GMP, HARM, SNPI, YI, DI, M PSTI and M SSTI.

  • The Salmas (Iran) Earthquake of May 6Th, 1930
    The Salmas (Iran) earthquake of May 6th, 1930 J. S. TCHALENKO (*) - M. BERBERIAN (**) Received on March 20th, 1974 SUMMARY. — Field investigations and bibliographical research into the little-known but important Salmas earthquake in Northwest Azar- baijan (Iran) provided the following results. The morning before the earth- quake, a foreshock (Mb — 5.4) centered, as the main shock, in the Salmas Plain, killed about 25 people and incited a great part of the population to spend the following night out of doors. The main shock (Mb = 7.3) occurred the following night, on 6 May 1930 at 22h34m27s GMT and destroyed about 60 villages and 40 churches, killing about 2514 people, both in the Salmas Plain and in the surrounding mountains. Its macroseismic epicentre was at approximately 3S.15N 44.70E. The main shock was associated with 2 surface faults, with a maximum horizontal displacement of 4 m and ver- tical displacement of over 5 m; the combined action of these faults was a relative lowering, and a displacement to the east, of the Salmas Plain. Two days later, the strongest aftershock destroyed one village at the northern edge of the Salmas Plain. RIASSUNTO. — Gli studi fatti e le ricerche bibliografiche hanno dato sul poco conosciuto ma importante terremoto di Salmas (Azarbaijan, nord- occidentale, Iran) le seguenti informazioni. La mattina prima del terremoto, nella Piana di Salmas una scossa premonitoria (Mb = 5.4), ritenuta la principale, causò circa 25 morti co- stringendo una gran parte della popolazione a trascorrere la notte all'aperto. La notte seguente, 6 Maggio 1930 alle 221i34m27s GMT, avvenne la scossa principale che distrusse, nella Piana di Salmas e nelle montagne circostanti, circa 60 villaggi e 40 chiese provocando la.

The 2020 Journal is different due to the COVID-19 pandemic that affected the annual session of Convention, the requirement for our churches to move to virtual services, and our camps not able to gather in-person, due to health safety concerns. It is important to produce an annual Journal because it is our legal record of the business and gather- ings for the year between our annual sessions. The decision to cancel the planned 2020 Convention in Bridgewater, Massachusetts due to the worldwide pandemic was made by the Executive Committee of General Council, March 2020. By that time it was evident we would be unable to gather in physical presence due to mandated travel restrictions and worldwide health concerns for potential transmission of the COVID-19 virus. Our denomination came up with a “virtual” process to gather as a sa- cred community to worship, learn, share, and participate in many aspects of a regular convention over the same weekend previously planned, June 26-28, 2020.

    Historical Site of Mirhadi Hoseini http://m-hosseini.ir ……………………………………………………………………………………… . SALMÂS By: Vahid Marhamati-Salmâsi Abstract: The remains discovered in `Goltappeh' hill in the Iranian city of Salmas in West Azarbaijan, gives evidence to the fact that the area identified the city as being inhabited ever since the seventh millennium BCE It is believed that the town of Salmas has been in existence from the third millennium BCE under the rule of the Assyrian King Salmasar III. Furthermore, according to historical accounts the town was known as `Zarvand' during the Achamenian Empire. The famous `Haftevan Church' is located in this region, where also the first school using modern methods in Iran was established by Saidkhan Salmasi. The tribal citizens of the region comprise of Kurdish, Turkish as well as Armenian descents. The city of Salmas consists of 150 villages and seven districts and moreover it is well-known as a major producer of fresh and dried apricots in Iran. Located in northwestern Iran, consisting of cultivating plains and mountainous areas, the historic central town of Salmas is an ancient region, being supplied by the rich waters of the Zolachai River. The antiquated remains found in the Salmas region serve as a witness to the settlement of people in the area in the ancient past. According to ancient tales, Salmas was initially established in the third millennium BCE and under the rule of the Assyrian King Shalmasar III. It was primarily used as a fort against attacks by tribes associated and united with the Babylonians. With the passage of time the castle gradually was developed into a town and the name was eventually shortened from Salmasar to Salmas because of its ease of pronunciation.
