One of these "experts" was the son of Liang A-fa, the famed early Chinese convert to Protestar).tism. This boy, Atih [A -te ] , had studied under the tutorship of Elijah Bridgman from 1830 or 1831 to 1839. Bridgman noted at the time his concern and anxiety over the boy's employment by Lin, whom he never forgave for "ruining" the lad. ABCFM,South China Mission, v.la, no. 55 (Macao, 9/7/39). 3.

Low Vowel Raising in Sinitic Languages: Assimilation, Reduction, Or Both?*
LANGUAGE AND LINGUISTICS 13.4:583-623, 2012 2012-0-013-004-000279-1 Low Vowel Raising in Sinitic Languages: * Assimilation, Reduction, or Both? Feng-fan Hsieh National Tsing Hua University Many Sinitic languages respect low vowel raising (LVR) whereby the low vowel /a/ is raised to /e/ only when flanked by a palatal glide and a coronal coda. In this article, I show that LVR in Sinitic languages is a genuine process of grammar because low-level phonetic coarticulatory effects alone cannot account for cross- linguistic/dialectal variation. Specifically, my survey reveals that vowel duration, onset consonants and/or the presence of retroflexes may have a direct bearing on LVR, thus calling for a phonological analysis. I argue that the phenomenon in question is better treated as additive effects of (i) target undershoot in the wake of impoverished vowel duration (i.e. vowel reduction) and (ii) contextual influences (i.e. backness assimilation). Phonological vowel quality change (LVR here) is motivated only when the benefit of contextual neutralization exceeds that of the sum of the “cost” of implementing the above coarticulatory patterns. Analytically, Flemming’s (2003) feature co-occurrence constraints, together with phonetically driven constraints, provide a straightforward account of the relationship between coronal place and vowel backness attested in LVR. Finally, implications for Mandarin segmental phonology are also discussed. Key words: vowel raising, vowel reduction, assimilation, segmental phonology, Sinitic languages 1. Introduction In this paper, I consider a fairly common but understudied process of vowel quality change in a handful of Sinitic languages: The low vowel /a/ is raised to [e] when * I would like to thank Yueh-chin Chang, Yen-Hwei Lin, Jeroen van de Weijer, and two anonymous reviewers for their detailed comments on earlier versions of this paper.

Romantic If the Cantonese crew members on board the Chinese junk Keying felt cooped up, they had good Domesticity reason. Since departing Hong Kong in December 1846 and sailing all the way to New York via the 3. The China Cape of Good Hope, they had worked, eaten, and slept on this 160-foot-long boat. When they Effect initially signed on, the British captain had assured them that the junk was headed only as far as 4. China in the island of Java. And after they discovered the deception, he exercised brute force to keep Miniature them with the craft. But whereas the surrounding ocean and a coercive captain had once kept them from leaving the junk, now crowds of New Yorkers did. As one of the top attractions of the 5. Floating summer, the Keying drew droves of curious people who were eager to board it and meet the Ethnology crew. For the latter, these visitors could be exhausting as well as annoying—especially the China to New children who repeatedly tugged on their dangling queues. York Early Reception Tired of being an exhibit, several members of the crew decided to stretch their legs and see the China sights of Gotham. On August 2, 1847, they disembarked and headed into the city. Of course, Downgraded being Chinese in a predominantly white city, they were unable to blend into the crowds and so Barnumization continued to be an exhibit even while taking time off.

Roman Catholic Perceptions of British and American Protestant Missionaries (1807–1920)
19 Roman Catholic Perceptions of British and American Protestant Missionaries (1807–1920) Jean-Paul WIEST* 1 Introduction Some time ago a colleague asked me about what I thought and read on Catholic and Protestant missionaries’ perceptions of each other prior to World War I. My answer was rather blunt: “Catholic missionaries did not have much to say that was good about Protestant missionaries and vice-versa—quite paradoxical for people preaching to love one another!” My friend’s question prompted me to pay more attention to how both sides viewed and dealt with each other, and as I gathered material on the subject, my assessment of their relationship became more nuanced. In this essay, I do not pretend to submit an exhaustive assessment of the entire spec- trum of what were then called the mission fields. I have limited myself to the one field I know fairly well, the China mission, which provides, in my judg- ment, a vivid and accurate representation of what happened in other mission countries when Protestant and Catholic missionaries came face to face. The material I introduce is arranged topically and put into its proper context. As much as possible, I avoid paraphrasing the subjects of this inquiry. Rather, I let them speak for themselves so that we may savor, so to speak, the flavor of their prose. I begin with an overview of how Protestants viewed Catholics. Far from being a departure from the chosen topic, this will serve as the frame of refer- ence for the rest of the paper when we consider Catholic perceptions and critiques of Protestant missions.

The Romance of China: Conclusion http://www.gutenberg-e.org/haj01/haj11.html Email this citation Conclusion Introduction 1 1. Xanadu In 1795, Andreas Everadus van Braam Houckgeest made his memorable appearance before the 2. Romantic Chinese emperor Qianlong. In 1874, Samuel Wells Williams found himself in the same position. Domesticity The American minister to China, B. P. Avery, had official business to transact with the emperor, 3. The China and he required Williams’s services as an interpreter. Houckgeest had followed Chinese protocol Effect by engaging in the prescribed kowtow, but that was a formality Williams could dispense with. The 4. China in previous year, the foreign community in Peking had settled this issue with the Qing government. Miniature For the aging American missionary, this singular experience before the monarch was symbolic of 5. Floating the changes that had taken place in China over the course of the century. When he had first arrived in Canton in 1833, he was considered a “foreign devil” by the Chinese and was granted Ethnology few rights or privileges by Qing officials. Now, in 1874, he and Avery were received “on a footing 6. God's China of perfect equality with the ‘Son of Heaven.’” To what did he attribute this dramatic shift? Over 7. Fruits of the previous half century, China had sustained several massive collisions with foreign powers and Diplomacy the people’s national pride was consequently deflated in a manner that Williams regarded as 8. Bayard beneficial. The continual humbling of the Chinese, he hoped, would ultimately render them more Taylor's Asia receptive to the Word of God.
