  • “Heal the Sick”
    "HEAL THE SICK" THE STORY OF THE MEDICAL MISSION AUXILIARY OF THE BAPTIST MISSIONARY SOCIETY By R. FLETCHER MOORSHEAD, M.B., F.R.C.S. Medical Secretary of the Society LONDON: THE CAREY PRESS 19 FURNIVAL STREET TO MY WIFE AUTHOR'S PREFACE Two years ago, upon the occasion of the celebration of the semi-jubilee of the Medical Mission Auxiliary, the desire was expressed that some permanent record of the twenty-five years should be compiled. The following pages, written as and when they could be in the scant leisure that it was possible to snatch from the demands of other work, are offered in the hope that their perusal may deepen interest in the work of B.M.S. Medical Missions. The very fact that the Auxiliary no longer exists as a specific branch of the Society may be held to constitute one reason why its inspiring story should be recorded ere the ceaseless march of events has caused it to be forgotten. A greater reason may be found in the character of the service which here stands revealed. No finer heroism is to be found anywhere than that exhibited by the lives of mission­ ary doctors and nurses, and for the sake of the younger generation in particular, it deserves to be told. A still further reason may be traced in the need, increasingly apparent, to safeguard the dis­ tinctive work of Medical Missions from being lost sight of in the more general presentation of the missionary enterprise which has become customary of recent years. In a very real sense the place and power of Medical Missions require to be defined afresh in vii viii PREFACE the days in which we live.

  • Andrew Young of Shensi
    ANDREW YOUNG OF SHENSI ADVENTURE IN MEDICAL MISSIONS BY }. C. KEYTE LONDON: THE CAREY PRESS 19, FURNIVAL STREET TO THE MEMORY OF TWO GALLANT GENTLEMEN : H. STANLEY JENKINS, M.D., F.R.C.S., AND CECIL F. RoBERTSON, M.B., F.R.C.S., Whose passion it was to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ ; whose privilege it was, in His Name, to relieve the suffering ; and who, in prosecuting theirlabour of love, laid down their lives in Sianfu in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and thirteen. AUTHOR'S PREFACE THE justification for such a volume as the present is to be found in the belief that " the fine is not the abnormal, it is the usual." The thought of' any book written around his life being the glorification of the subject would have distressed Andrew Young greatly, but to its publication he might have at least resigned himself if from a perusal of his story the reader could gather a truer idea of the aims underlying the medical missionary enterprise. The subject of this biography has points of temperament and areas of experience peculiar to himself, yet it is as he is representative that he is most valuable ; and whilst many missionaries fall short of the standard at which he arrived, the reader can yet rest assured that the values in conduct which appear in the pages which follow are not peculiar to this missionary alone. Mission­ aries' faults there are in plenty, easily discovered and described, but the virtues are there also, and, both for the student as well as for the critic of missions, a little honest research in this latter direction will not be time wasted.

Phoebe Chow 3 Abstract Public opinion in Britain influenced the government’s policy of retreat in response to Chinese nationalism in the 1920s. The foreigners’ rights to live, preach, work and trade in China extracted by the ‘unequal treaties’ in the nineteenth century were challenged by an increasingly powerful nationalist movement, led by the Kuomintang, which was bolstered by Soviet support. The Chinese began a major attack on British interests in June 1925 in South China and continued the attack as the Kuomintang marched upward to the Yangtze River, where much of British trade was centred.

Abstract Elite Protestants were a very small group in Republican China, but they were surprisingly influential among the ranks of Chinese modernizers, with Sun Yatsen as the preeminent example. They represented one of the most significant fruits of Sino-Western cultural exchange in the early twentieth century and left a lasting mark on China, yet as a group they have been largely overlooked in histories of the period. This dissertation, therefore, restores these individuals to history at the same time that it probes a deeper affinity between Protestantism and modernity that helps to explain the rise of this group and their particular vision of a modern China.

It is a difficult a task to say “thank you” for all the help, support, understanding, and argument given by so many people over the time it took to write this dissertation. I apologize first to those nameless supporters who, due to my fault, suffered omission or under-representation. Still, I would like to enjoy this opportunity to acknowledge my appreciations to as many people and institutions as I can. My appreciation goes first wholeheartedly to my adviser, Professor Sally Gregory Kohlstedt. Without her academic support, encouragement, and patience I could not have come this far. Her guidance, insight, and immense knowledge steered me through this long learning process. Her advice and feedback throughout my project through each stage of the process would not be overstated by any language. My profound gratitude goes to my dissertation committee members, Professors Susan D. Jones, Jennifer Lee Gunn, Mark E. Borrello, and Honghong Tinn. Their stimulating questions, from multiple perspectives formed a comprehensive and objective critique. Their enthusiastic encouragement and insightful comments often opened new windows for me to consider different perspectives of my project.

This study is designed to analyze their special role in China's national development and modernization. The opening chapter mainly introduces the significance of the missionary social gospel and describes its theological tenets. It also examines the origins of the movement for cooperation among the Protestant missions and the features of the main British missions. The thesis then turns to the areas in which the missions displayed their leading social concerns, deriving from their policies. Chapters 2 & 3 describe the major contributions of the missionary medical services, analysing both primary medical work (direct medical care) and secondary medical work (education, research, translations and publications, public health).

  • The Making of Western Medicine for Women in China, 1880S–1920S
    The Female Hand: The Making of Western Medicine for Women in China, 1880s–1920s Shing-ting Lin Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2015 © 2015 Shing-ting Lin All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Female Hand: The Making of Western Medicine for Women in China, 1880s–1920s Shing-ting Lin This dissertation explores the transmission of Western medicine for women in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century China. It starts from the fundamental presupposition that one cannot reach a proper understanding of the medical knowledge available at the time without investigating the practical experience of doctors, medical students, and their female patients. Focusing on the practice of Western and Chinese missionary practitioners (male and female), including the hospital buildings they erected, the texts they translated, the ways they manipulated their senses in diagnosis and treatment, and the medical appliances they employed for surgery and delivery, I reconstruct these people’s daily-life experiences, while reassessing the broad issues of professionalization and gender, colonial medicine, translation, knowledge making, and interactions between the human body and inanimate materials in a cross-cultural context. This dissertation first highlights daily life’s contributions to the history of professionalization by examining the on-the-ground, material circumstances of women doctors’ work at the Hackett Medical Complex in the southeast treaty-port city of Canton (Guangzhou). The physical conditions of the missionary hospital and its built environment embodied the multi- layered process through which the concrete elements of Western medicine were circulated, applied, and localized in China’s pluralistic medical landscape.
