We are all aware of the weakness of the evangelical Mission to the Maori (1814-1840) 3 church in New Zealand today; and it can be discouraging. What we are usually seeing is a decline from former faithfulness – or it could be due to New Zealand’s early Christian serious weaknesses from the beginning. Certainly, many immigrants to these heritage (2) shores were not much interested in the Christian church – and were far less The Otago Free Church settlement – inclined to attend church than were those they left behind in Britain.

  • European Responses to Indigenous Violence in the Tasman World, C.1769-1850S
    ‘Of Red War and Little Else’: European Responses to Indigenous Violence in the Tasman World, c.1769-1850s Samuel Gordon Gardiner Ritchie A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Victoria University of Wellington 2013 ii iii For my Michelle and our Matilda Dylan arohanui, arohamai iv Abstract Europeans responded to indigenous internecine violence in a variety of ways in the Tasman world from first contact to the middle of the nineteenth cen- tury. Whereas extant historiography has previously addressed European responses to Māori and Aboriginal violence in geographic and temporal iso- lation, a comparison spanning time and space augments knowledge of these responses. Violence was not the only aspect of indigenous societies Europe- ans responded to, nor was indigenous violence the only justification for colonisation. However an investigation of the ways in which Europeans rep- resented and responded to indigenous violence enables a better understand- ing of the processes of the colonisation of the Tasman world. Indigenous internecine violence included cannibalism, infanticide, inter- gender violence, and inter-tribal warfare. Through a wide variety of Euro- pean observations of this violence, this thesis identifies an initial conceptu- alisation of both New Zealand Māori and Aboriginal peoples of Australia as violent, cannibal ‘savages’. This conceptualisation was used to justify both colonisation and the related evangelical and colonial administrative attempts to suppress indigenous violence, as internecine violence was deemed ‘un- civilised’, unchristian, and unacceptable. Europeans attempted to suppress indigenous violence as it was seen both as an impediment to colonisation and, relatedly, as an inhibitor to the ‘redemption’ of indigenous peoples.
