ABSTRACT Conversion by the Book: Buddhist Print Culture in Early Republican China 經典佛化: 民國初期佛教出版文化 Gregory Adam Scott 史瑞戈 In this dissertation I argue that print culture acted as a catalyst for change among Buddhists in modern China. Through examining major publication institutions, publishing projects, and their managers and contributors from the late nineteenth century to the 1920s, I show that the expansion of the scope and variety of printed works, as well as new the social structures surrounding publishing, substantially impacted the activity of Chinese Buddhists. In doing so I hope to contribute to ongoing discussions of the ‘revival’ of Chinese Buddhism in the modern period, and demonstrate that publishing, propelled by new print technologies and new forms of social organization, was a key field of interaction and communication for religious actors during this era, one that helped make possible the introduction and adoption of new forms of religious thought and practice. 本論文的論點是出版文化在近代中國佛教人物之中,扮演了變化觸媒的角色. 通過研究從十 九世紀末到二十世紀二十年代的主要的出版機構, 種類, 及其主辦人物與提供貢獻者, 論文 說明佛教印刷的多元化 以及範圍的大量擴展, 再加上跟出版有關的社會結構, 對中國佛教 人物的活動都發生了顯著的影響. 此研究顯示在被新印刷技術與新形式的社會結構的推進 下的出版事業, 為該時代的宗教人物展開一種新的相互連結與構通的場域, 因而使新的宗教 思想與實踐的引入成為可能. 此論文試圖對現行關於近代中國佛教的所謂'復興'的討論提出 貢獻.

  • Witnessing to Christ in a Pluralistic World Christian Mission Among Other Faiths
    REGNUM EDINBURGH 2010 SERIES Witnessing to Christ in a Pluralistic World Christian Mission among Other Faiths REGNUM EDINBURGH 2010 SERIES The Centenary of the World Missionary Conference of 1910, held in Edinburgh, was a suggestive moment for many people seeking direction for Christian mission in the twenty-first century. Several different constituencies within world Christianity held significant events around 2010. From 2005, an international group worked collaboratively to develop an intercontinental and multi-denominational project, known as Edinburgh 2010, and based at New College, University of Edinburgh. This initiative brought together representatives of twenty different global Christian bodies, representing all major Christian denominations and confessions, and many different strands of mission and church life, to mark the Centenary. Essential to the work of the Edinburgh 1910 Conference, and of abiding value, were the findings of the eight think-tanks or ‘commissions’. These inspired the idea of a new round of collaborative reflection on Christian mission – but now focused on nine themes identified as being key to mission in the twenty-first century. The study process was polycentric, open-ended, and as inclusive as possible of the different genders, regions of the world, and theological and confessional perspectives in today’s church. It was overseen by the Study Process Monitoring Group: Miss Maria Aranzazu Aguado (Spain, The Vatican), Dr Daryl Balia (South Africa, Edinburgh 2010), Mrs Rosemary Dowsett (UK, World Evangelical Alliance), Dr Knud Jørgensen (Norway, Areopagos), Rev. John Kafwanka (Zambia, Anglican Communion), Rev. Dr Jooseop Keum (Korea, World Council of Churches), Dr Wonsuk Ma (Korea, Oxford Centre for Mission Studies), Rev.

  • Guest Editorial Contextualising the Commitments and Concerns of Dr
    Swedish Missiological Themes, 97, 2 (2009) Guest Editorial Contextualising the Commitments and Concerns of Dr. Karl Ludvig Reichelt in the 21st Century Thor Strandenæs In this issue of SMT four articles are based on presentations at the School of Mission and Theology (Misjonshøgskolen, Stavanger) during the annual Dr. Karl Ludvig Reichelt Memorial Lectures and Study Day in 2008. This annual event was inaugurated in 2003, a hundred years after Reichelt left for China as a missionary for the Norwegian Missionary Society (NMS).1 The purpose of the event is to engage in scholarly research and discussion on topics related to the fields of missiology and science of religion. A number of the papers and lectures which have been offered during these years have been published. Thus the event has become a research laboratory, raising issues which concern mission and religion, both of historical and contemporary natures. The substantial outcome of the Reichelt memorial lectures and study days is that they give opportunities to look more closely at their contents over the years and relate them to the commitments and concerns of the person in whose honour they are conducted. Hence this guest editorial comes in the form of historical analysis. Before dealing with the Reichelt annual events, however, we should look more closely at Reichelt’s commitments and concerns in light of his life. Dr. Karl Ludvig Reichelt – Missionary, Scholar, and Pilgrim I have borrowed this three-fold characteristic of Reichelt – missionary, scholar, and pilgrim – from the title of Eric J. Sharpe’s Reichelt biography.2 These three relevant characteristics truly reflect Reichelt’s commitments.

Introduction II. Life and Work of Karl Ludvig Reichelt III. Missionary, Scholar, and Pilgrim IV. Hermeneutical Principles to Buddhist Mission V. Conclusion Korea Presbyterian Journal of Theology Vol. 51 No. 4 (2019. 11), 137-160 DOI: 10.15757/kpjt.2019.51.4.007 138 KOREA PRESBYTERIAN JOURNAL OF THEOLOGY Vol. 51 No. 4 Abstract This paper explores a hermeneutical possibility of whether the gospel of Jesus can be properly represented within the framework assumed by the Buddhist worldview, framework that does not require the religious other to assume a Western worldview. Karl Ludvig Reichelt (1877-1952), a Norwegian Lutheran missionary to China, established a Christian monastery Tao Fong Shan ( ) in Hong Kong which was 道風山 radically based on his Johannine hermeneutic, including architecture, outward and inward design, and daily life. It was modelled after Buddhist monasteries to make sense to Buddhists in appearance, worship ceremony, and terminology. His Johannine Approach gave special emphasis to the “Light” and “Logos” for developing Christ’s fulfillment through hidden disposition of teachings in Chinese religions, which was the key to elicit “all-embracing activity of Jesus Christ,” implicitly related to Jesus’ seven “I AM” sayings (egō eimi). Reichelt seriously considered not only the foundational depth of Buddhism as more than superficial and doctrinaire, but also how greater portions of Buddhist culture can be retained and the gospel of Jesus communicated in light of the Buddhist framework.

  • Research and Commentaries on Buddhism by Norwegian Missionary Karl Ludvig Reichelt
    Research and Commentaries on Buddhism by Norwegian Missionary Karl Ludvig Reichelt SUN YIPING Nanjing University [email protected] Keywords: Karl Ludvig Reichelt, Buddhist research, Christian Centre, religious dialogues DOI: https://dx.doi.org/10.15239/hijbs.01.01.05 Abstract: During the Republic of China period, the Norwegian mis- sionary Karl Ludvig Reichelt (1877–1952) and his family were sent to China by the Norwegian艾香德 Missionary Society (Nuowei wai bang chuan jiaohui ). Influenced by the period’s revival of Buddhist culture,挪威外邦傳教會 and especially the lay Buddhism, Reichelt gradually realised that ‘without studying Buddhism, one hasn’t the means to evangelise’. As a result, he diligently studied and came to an under- standing of Buddhism. He even established ‘Christian Centres’ (Jidu- jiao conglin ) in Nanjing and later Hong Kong in order to spread Christianity基督教叢林 throughout China by a Buddhist-inspired method. He also launched the ‘Religious Unity Movement’ (Zongjiao lianhe yundong ), which promoted mutual understanding and dialogue between宗教聯合運動 religions. The Buddhism-inspired methods used by Reichelt to disseminate Christianity have always led to a great deal of controversy, but it cannot be disputed that he advanced understanding between European and Eastern cultures and fostered interactions be- tween Buddhism and Christianity. The religious dialogues he fostered have had a positive impact that continues to this day. 142 Hualin International Journal of Buddhist Studies, 1.1 (2018): 142–158 REICHELT’S RESEARCH AND COMMENTARIES ON BUDDHISM 143 arl Ludvig Reichelt (1877–1952; known in China by the Chinese Kname Ai Xiangde ) was a Norwegian missionary who came to China to spread Christianity艾香德 during the Republic of China period.

    Notto R. Thelle* In Memoriam Harry Thomsen (1928–2008) Dialogical Missionary and Research Facilitator Harry Thomsen came to Japan in 1956 with a strong commitment to the missionary vision of Karl Ludvig Reichelt (1877-1952).1 Reichelt was a pioneer of the early Buddhist-Christian dialogue in China, and founded The Christian Mission to Buddhists with its centers in Nanjing in the 1920s and in the New Territories of Hong Kong from the early 1930s. The beautiful center of Tao Fong Shan in Hong Kong, built according to traditional Buddhist style and with a Christian spiritual life adapted to Buddhist conventions, was a classical expression of the ambition to be in dialogue with Chinese religion and culture.2 Thomsen had a strong sense of being Reichelt’s spiritual heir and successor – he even referred to Reichelt’s direct challenge to him about such a calling – and dreamt about establishing a “Tao Fong Shan” in Japan. Thomsen’s lasting contribution to interfaith dialogue was, on the one hand, The Christian Center for the Study of Japanese Religions, established in Kyoto in * Notto R.

ENCOUNTERING CHINA: THE EVOLUTION OF TIMOTHY RICHARD’S MISSIONARY THOUGHT (1870-1891) BY ANDREW T. KAISER DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY THE UNIVERSITY OF EDINBURGH 2014 ii Declaration I, Andrew T.
