    © 2013 Yi-ling Lin CULTURAL ENGAGEMENT IN MISSIONARY CHINA: AMERICAN MISSIONARY NOVELS 1880-1930 BY YI-LING LIN DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Comparative Literature in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2013 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral committee: Professor Waïl S. Hassan, Chair Professor Emeritus Leon Chai, Director of Research Professor Emeritus Michael Palencia-Roth Associate Professor Robert Tierney Associate Professor Gar y G. Xu Associate Professor Rania Huntington, University of Wisconsin at Madison Abstract From a comparative standpoint, the American Protestant missionary enterprise in China was built on a paradox in cross-cultural encounters. In order to convert the Chinese—whose religion they rejected—American missionaries adopted strategies of assimilation (e.g. learning Chinese and associating with the Chinese) to facilitate their work. My dissertation explores how American Protestant missionaries negotiated the rejection-assimilation paradox involved in their missionary work and forged a cultural identification with China in their English novels set in China between the late Qing and 1930. I argue that the missionaries’ novelistic expression of that identification was influenced by many factors: their targeted audience, their motives, their work, and their perceptions of the missionary enterprise, cultural difference, and their own missionary identity. Hence, missionary novels may not necessarily be about conversion, the missionaries’ primary objective but one that suggests their resistance to Chinese culture, or at least its religion. Instead, the missionary novels I study culminate in a non-conversion theme that problematizes the possibility of cultural assimilation and identification over ineradicable racial and cultural differences.

  • The Western Lives of American Missionary Women in China (1860-1920)
    CONVERT BUT NOT CONVERTED: THE WESTERN LIVES OF AMERICAN MISSIONARY WOMEN IN CHINA (1860-1920) A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of The School of Continuing Studies and of The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Liberal Studies By Caroline Hearn Fuchs, M.I.A. Georgetown University Washington, D.C. March 31, 2014 CONVERT BUT NOT CONVERTED: THE WESTERN LIVES OF AMERICAN MISSIONARY WOMEN IN CHINA (1860-1920) Caroline Hearn Fuchs, M.I.A. MALS Mentor: Kazuko Uchimura, Ph.D. ABSTRACT Kate Roberts Hearn was buried in a Shanghai cemetery in 1891, a short four years after her acceptance into the Women’s Missionary Service of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South. In 1873, Charlotte “Lottie” Moon left for a new life in China as a single missionary woman. She served in that country for nearly 40 years, dying aboard ship on a final return voyage to the United States. Both women left their American homes expecting to convert the people of an alien land to Christianity. They also arrived in China prepared to maintain their Western rituals and comforts, which effectively separated them from the Chinese and cultivated a sense of the “Other.” In this way, missionary women came to convert, but were not converted themselves. Missionary communities, specifically missionary women, vigorously sought to maintain domestic and work lifestyles anchored in Western culture. The rise of “domesticity” in the nineteenth century gave women an influential role as a graceful redeemer, able to transform “heathens” by demonstrating civilized values of a Christian home, complete with Western elements of cleanliness, companionable marriage, and the paraphernalia of Victorian life, such as pianos in the parlor.

  • A Bffiliographical ESSAY on the LIFE, MINISTRY, and IMPACT of WILLIAM LINDSEY WALLACE, M.D
    A BffiLIOGRAPHICAL ESSAY ON THE LIFE, MINISTRY, AND IMPACT OF WILLIAM LINDSEY WALLACE, M.D. Analytical Bibliographic Essay Presented to Dr. Keith Eitel Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary In Partial Fulfillment ofthe Requirements for WCSTU 7604 st 18, 2014 c A BffiLIOGRAPHICAL ESSAY ON THE LIFE, MINISTRY, AND IMPACT OF WILLIAM LINDSEY WALLACE, M.D. Establishing the identity of this essay's subject is necessary. Who was William Lindsey Wallace, M.D. and what significant role did he occupy that would merit consideration in the annals of missional historical discovery? An unassuming individual from what was then a small East Tennessee town, Bill Wallace would be the least likely person to become a hero. His servant's heart and unwavering humility demonstrate his greatness. As history unfolded, no person, potential mate, situation, danger, or even the Communist Army would be able to break loose the mortar binding Dr. Wallace to the divine pathway and task before him. His unswerving commitment compelled him to carry out his duties at the Stout Memorial Hospital in Wuchow, China without regard to his own well-being. This underscores the importance of etching this story in the chronicles of time and history. Time is obscuring an accurate presentation of this most significant story. Scholarly materials on this "gentle giant" are limited and difficult to locate. If his life is "legendary," then where is the evidence? A bibliographical essay on materials pertinent to the life, work, and impact of William "Bill" Wallace comes with few thoroughly assimilated resources. Even though Southern Baptists are engaged in a vast process of sending evangelical missionaries in the world, one of its heroes has failed to gamer significant attention in academia.
