  • KIWI BIBLE HEROES Te Pahi
    KIWI BIBLE HEROES Te Pahi Te Pahi was one of the most powerful chiefs in the Bay of Islands at the turn of the 19th century. His principal pa was on Te Puna, an Island situated between Rangihoua and Moturoa. He had several wives, five sons and three daughters. Having heard great reports of Governor Phillip King on Norfolk Island, Te Pahi set sail in 1805 with his four sons to meet him. The ship’s master treated Te Pahi and his family poorly during the trip and on arrival decided to retain one of his sons as payments for the journey. To make matters worse, Te Pahi discovered that King had now become the Governor of New South Wales and was no longer on Norfolk Island. Captain Piper, who was now the authority on Norfolk Island, used his powers to rescue Te Pahi and his sons and treated them kindly until the arrival of the Buffalo. Te Pahi and his sons continued their journey to Sydney on the Buffalo in their quest to meet King. In Sydney they were taken to King’s residence where they presented him with gifts from New Zealand. During their stay in Sydney, Te Pahi attended the church at Parramatta conducted by Samuel Marsden. Te Pahi had long conversations with Marsden about spiritual Sources: matters and showed particular interest in the Christian http://www.teara.govt.nz/en/biographies/1t53/te-pahi accessed May 21, 2014 God.

  • Maori in Sydney and the Critical Role They Played in the Success of the Town Has Been Minimised by Historians
    Sydney Journal 3(1) December 2010 ISSN 1835-0151 http://epress.lib.uts.edu.au/ojs/index.php/sydney_journal/index Maori Jo Kamira Non-Indigenous written history claims there was no contact between Maori and Koori.1 Despite this, Indigenous lore in Australia tells of contact between the two. In the early days of the colony, trans-Tasman travel was fluid between Sydney and New Zealand for Maori and non-Indigenous people alike. An eighteenth-century map by Daniel Djurberg shows an alternative name for New Holland as 'Ulimaroa'. This was widely believed to be a Maori word for Australia; however there is no L in the Maori alphabet. This may mean it was a Polynesian word, perhaps Hawaiian or Samoan, however it does not explain how the name came into Djurberg's possession. From 1788 to 1840 the colony of New South Wales included New Zealand. The head of state was the monarch, represented by the governor of New South Wales. British sovereignty over New Zealand was not established until 1840, when the Treaty of Waitangi recognised that New Zealand had been an independent territory until then. The Declaration of Independence signed in 1835 by a number of Maori chiefs and formally recognised by the British government indicated that British sovereignty did not extend to New Zealand. This meant the British in Sydney had no option than to deal with Maori, who were still in control of their own land. The history of Maori in Sydney and the critical role they played in the success of the town has been minimised by historians.

  • Here Were Two Million Copies of the Dairyman’S Daughter Pub- Lished in English, in the USA As Well As in the UK
    A major new biography of the leading evangelist to New Zealand, the ‘flogging parson’ Rev. Samuel Marsden, and the struggles with ‘the world, the flesh and the devil’ that he spent his life pursuing. New Zealanders know Samuel Marsden as the founder of the CMS missions that brought Christianity (and perhaps sheep) to New Zealand. Australians know him as ‘the flogging parson’ who established large landholdings and was dismissed from his position as magistrate for exceeding his jurisdiction. English readers know of Marsden for his key role in the history of missions and empire. In this major biography spanning research, and the subject’s life, across England, New South Wales and New Zealand, Andrew Sharp tells the story of Marsden’s life from the inside. Sharp focuses on revealing to modern readers the powerful evangelical lens through which Marsden understood the world. By diving deeply into key moments – the voyage out, the disputes with Macquarie, the founding of missions – Sharp gets us to reimagine the world as Marsden saw it: always under threat from the Prince of Darkness, in need of ‘a bold reprover of vice’, a world written in the words of the King James Bible. Andrew Sharp takes us back into the nineteenth-century world, and an evangelical mind, to reveal the past as truly a foreign country. Andrew Sharp is Emeritus Professor of Political Studies at the University of Auckland. Since 2006 he has lived in London, and is the author or editor of books including The Political Ideas of the English Civil Wars (1983), Justice and the Māori (1990, expanded 1997), Leap into the Dark: The Changing Role of the State in New Zealand since 1984 (1994), The English Levellers (1998), Histories Power and Loss: Uses of the Past – a New Zealand Commentary (2001 with P.

    ‘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.

  • Mobility, Reciprocal Relationships and Early British Encounters in the North of New Zealand Rachel Standfield
    3 Mobility, Reciprocal Relationships and Early British Encounters in the North of New Zealand Rachel Standfield From the establishment of the European settlement at Port Jackson, Māori travelled to the Australian colonies and beyond. The kidnapping of Tuki and Huru and their forced journey from Muriwhenua to Norfolk Island in 1793 began a process whereby Māori took advantage of new connections and transport and developed connections via overseas travel.1 Men like Tuki and Huru, as well as other travellers such as Ruatara and Te Pahi, have become well-known names in New Zealand history, with historians and anthropologists documenting their journeys.2 However, this history of Māori movement is not simply one of intrepid individuals who travelled, but also signals a system of mobility borne out of and enabling further ‘world enlargement’ for Māori communities.3 This world enlargement not only affected local Māori, it also exerted influence on British imperial relations. This chapter focuses on communities rather than individuals, and on the ways that Māori mobility brought Māori ideas and cultural values to bear on relations with Europeans. 1 Tuki-tahua and Ngahururu (better known in histories as Tuki and Huru) were kidnapped from the Cavalli Islands, north of the Bay of Islands, to teach convicts how to weave flax. See Binney 2004: 215–32; Ballantyne 2014: 42. 2 Salmond 1997; Binney 2005. 3 Hau‘ofa 1993: 6. 57 INDIGENOUS MOBILITIES I use the New South Wales colonial chaplain Samuel Marsden’s journal of his first voyage to New Zealand in 1814–15 as both a source of evidence about Māori mobility and its effect ‘at home’ in the north of the North Island, and as a window to consider how Māori mobility influenced the chaplain’s travels.

  • THE INVITATION HOPE for All
    THE INVITATION HOPE for all See our nation’s history through different eyes, and take a fresh look at the future. A diverse group of churches throughout New Zealand have come together to gift these booklets to every home, to highlight some of the remarkable stories of our nation’s early bicultural history, and the message that is still changing hearts and lives two centuries later… and it’s a story with hope! Two hundred years ago, a Ngāpuhi chief named Ruatara welcomed the Reverend Samuel Marsden to bring the Christian message to New Zealand. What Ruatara had seen in Marsden and other sincere Christians he had become friends with, was a breed of men and women who were unlike most others. When the offer was made by them to share farming and building technologies with his people, along with their message of hope, Ruatara welcomed them. Not all of our nation’s history has been so positive, but this beginning was different. And 200 years later, the same message of hope is still changing hearts and lives. Why? Because the idea that there might be a single, knowable Creator who loves us remains the greatest of all human hopes. Yet it’s a possibility many seem to have given up on. But what if such a God did exist? Maybe we are not alone, or merely accidents of chance in a random universe. Maybe there is a real hope that can bring meaning to our lives despite all of our challenges — and, just like Ruatara did, this could be something worth considering.

  • 2014 Pilgrimage Document
    Anglican Diocese of Auckland Bicentennial Pilgrimage Resource Bay of Islands 2014 Notes to Accompany this Document I put this document together for a retreat of the Tikanga Pakeha Ministry Educators at the beginning of Lent 2013. A month later, the students of the Diocesan Training Programme, accompanied by The Reverend Chris Honore, undertook the same journey. Thus, there are some important things to note about it. First, it originates out of a Tikanga Pakeha context, and should be read as such. Second, it is primarily focused on pilgrimage, with history as the backdrop rather than the focal point. Third, the groups for whom this document was designed had only two days available for travel in the Bay of Islands. Thus, the scope of history covered was limited by time available. Therefore, many significant stories were omitted. Likewise, we did not have time to visit other significant sites such as the Stone Store in Kerikeri, Pompallier House in Russell or the Waitangi Treaty Grounds. Finally, the sequence of the locations was determined more by geography than chronology. The document begins with a liturgy for gathering the group at the beginning of the pilgrimage (which might be repeated each morning). In each of the locations, there is an excerpt of history (in some places commemorating a particular person). Following the historical narrative, there is a liturgy, readings and prayers, which follow a theme that has been identified out of the narrative. At each site there are some personal questions for individuals to reflect on, under the heading Mark of Faith. This resource has been made available to the diocese in response to reQuests that it be made more widely available.
