Bibliography of Thai Christianity Bibliography of Thai Christianity Herb Swanson Last update: August 2004 Source: http://www.herbswanson.com/eng_bibliography/eng_bibliography.php Introduction The purpose of this bibliography is to provide an extensive list of English-language research materials useful for the study of Christianity in Thailand. The standard for inclusion in the bibliography is that each entry is about and contributes something useful to the study of Christianity in Thailand. While the inevitable exceptions have undoubtedly crept in, as a rule items that are about Christianity in Thailand but, in my judgment, not useful to its study are excluded. Sources that may be very useful to the study of Christianity in Thailand but are not about it directly have also been excluded. By the same token, some well-known works by Thai Christians and missionaries who served here are not contained in the bibliography because they are not about Thai Christianity as such. Individual articles found in the publications listed in the section "Newspapers, Magazines, and Journals" are generally excluded in order to preserve space. In some cases, however, important individual articles are included, especially ones from major journals. While the intention of the bibliography is to be as ecumenical and inclusive as possible, its content clearly reflects my own research interests and expertise. First, it is overwhelmingly weighted towards Protestantism and, in fact, began as an exclusively Protestant bibliography. While some Catholic sources are now included, they remain relatively few in number and are by no means representative of what could and should be included. Second, within the Protestant domain, the bibliography is strongest for the old nineteenth-century missions, for Presbyterian missions down to the present, and for the Church of Christ in Thailand generally. Finally, it should be emphasized again that the bibliography contains what I personally and professionally think is "useful" to the study of Christianity in Thailand . This is not an annotated bibliography, but in a some cases it does provide a brief note on the subject of an item [in brackets] if the subject of the entry is not clear from its bibliographic information. The bibliography uses a Chicago Manual of Style (13th edition) format, and in keeping with an accepted convention Thai authors are alphabetized by first name. Each entry in the bibliography, except in the section on Periodicals ends with an abbreviation in brackets, which indicates where I located the entry. Those locations are as follows: BBC Bangkok Bible College Library, Bangkok [30 entries] BC Hutchins Library, Berea College [3 entries] CTC Cross-Cultural Training Center, Chiang Mai [17 entries] FC From a Citation in another work [178 entries] MFT McGilvary Faculty of Theology, Chiang Mai [25 entries] OH Office of History, Chiang Mai [123 entries] OL On Line items [12 entries] OMC Overseas Ministries Study Center, New Haven [6 entries] PHS Presbyterian Historical Society, Philadelphia [12 entries] PS Private Source [4 entries] PTS Speer Library, Princeton Theological Seminary [12 entries] PUA Payap University Archives, Chiang Mai [137 entries] SP Suan Plu Baptist Seminary Library, Bangkok [9 entries] SS Siam Society Library, Bangkok [9 entries] YDS Divinity School Library, Yale University [40 entries] FC [From Citation] indicates that the entry comes from a citation in a bibliography or a source note. I have not seen the item personally. FC entries are not always consistent with this bibliography's format, depending on the information provided in the citation itself. OL [On Line] indicates sources that were found on the Internet. The OL citations include an "as of" date indicating when the link was last checked. My own articles in HeRB are not included in this bibliography; those by other authors are included, if they are about Protestantism in Thailand. PS [Personal Sources] indicates sources that I have seen, but are in private hands. They are not available in the public domain, so far as I know, and are included, again, in the interest of completeness. The bibliography also includes a number of citations taken from the on line catalogs of several libraries as well as from the American Theological Library Association's on line periodical index (accessed through Hutchins Library, Berea College). I have not seen these items personally and the entries are based on the information given in the catalogs. These on line resources are: ATLA ATLA Periodical Index [44 entries] EUL Edinburgh University Library [6 entries] FTS McAlister Library, Fuller Theological Seminary [15 entries] LC Library of Congress [16 entries] SOAS School of Oriental & African Studies, London Univ.

  • American Protestant Missions in Nineteenth-Century China
    Asian Intercultural Contacts American Protestant Missions in Nineteenth-Century China By George B. Pruden background: Religion and Trade European Catholics mounted the first systematic effort to convert Chinese to Christi- anity in the late sixteenth century. Their work was part of the Catholic Counter Refor- mation, but by 1750, the glory days were over. Jesuits such as Matteo Ricci (1552–1610) had not only won converts, but gained the respect of influential Chinese and even some emperors in the latter part of the Ming dynasty (1368–1644) and the early part of the Qing dynasty (1644– 1912). Their success stemmed in part from accommodating the tradition of venerating an- cestors (calling it a civil and not a religious prac- tice) and using Chinese terms to refer to God. A rival monastic order, though, had gained the Pope’s support in condemning those accommodations. This Rites Controversy came to a head during the early eighteenth century. After Pope Clement IX prohibited Chinese Christian converts from taking part in ancestor-veneration ceremonies in 1715, the Kangxi Emperor in 1721 banned all Christian preaching in China. Although Catholic missionaries remained in China, their numbers and influence dwindled. ithin a few decades of the decline of Catholic presence in China, western European merchants arrived in growing numbers, eager for trade. Silk and porcelain—at the time produced only in WChina—fed a growing appetite for chinoiserie among the European elite classes. Tea became a popular beverage, not only for the aristocracy, but also for their affluent, social-climbing imitators among the country gentry and urban merchant class.

  • ABSTRACT Liang Fa's Quanshi Liangyan and Its Impact on The
    ABSTRACT Liang Fa’s Quanshi liangyan and Its Impact on the Taiping Movement Sukjoo Kim, Ph.D. Mentor: Rosalie Beck, Ph.D. Scholars of the Taiping Movement have assumed that Liang Fa’s Quanshi liangyan 勸世良言 (Good Words to Admonish the Age, being Nine Miscellaneous Christian Tracts) greatly influenced Hong Xiuquan, but very little has been written on the role of Liang’s work. The main reason is that even though hundreds of copies were distributed in the early nineteenth century, only four survived the destruction which followed the failure of the Taiping Movement. This dissertation therefore explores the extent of the Christian influence of Liang’s nine tracts on Hong and the Taiping Movement. This study begins with an introduction to China in the nineteenth century and the early missions of western countries in China. The second chapter focuses on the life and work of Liang. His religious background was in Confucianism and Buddhism, but when he encountered Robert Morrison and William Milne, he identified with Christianity. The third chapter discusses the story of Hong especially examining Hong’s acquisition of Liang’s Quanshi liangyan and Hong’s revelatory dream, both of which serve as motives for the establishment of the Society of God Worshippers and the Taiping Movement. The fourth chapter develops Liang’s key ideas from his Quanshi liangyan and compares them with Hong’s beliefs, as found in official documents of the Taipings. The fifth chapter describes Hong’s beliefs and the actual practices of the Taiping Movement and compares them with Liang’s key ideas.

  • The Borneo Company Limited Does
    Adventurous and entrepreneurial Englishmen known as the Wild Men of Borneo formed The Borneo Company Limited in 1856 (or 2399 according to the Thai solar calendar known as Suriyakati which counts from the year of the Buddha’s birth 543 years before Christ) initially to develop, or some say exploit, the natural resources of Borneo. The world’s third largest island at 290,000 square miles (750,000 square kilometers), Borneo is cradled by the Indonesian archipelago in the Java Sea. Over the company’s hundred plus years of existence, its activities extended to other islands in that archipelago now unified as Indonesia as well as the Malayan Peninsula, China and to the kingdom of Thailand, then known to foreigners as Siam. 137 Pillars House © First published in 2011.
