    Munich School” and Further Perspectives on the Interdisciplinary Study of the History of World Christianity

    Current Debates About the Approach of the “Munich School” and Further Perspectives on the Interdisciplinary Study of the History of World Christianity ADRIAN HERMANN UNIVERSITÄT HAMBURG CIPRIAN BURLacIOIU LUDWIG-MAXIMILIANS-UNIVERSITÄT MÜNCHEN ABSTRACT: The research projects and publications of Klaus Koschorke and the “Munich School of World Christianity” have sparked intense debate over the last two decades. The first section of this contribution discusses some of these reactions and critiques, as well as Koschorke’s responses. It addresses questions about the idea of “polycentricity,” alternative ways of conceptualizing a variety of Christian centers, the relationship of Koschorke’s approach to the concept of transcultura- tion, and the need for greater diversity and inclusiveness in scholarly perspectives. The second section outlines some important issues regarding challenges and further perspectives for a future history of world Christianity. It touches on the question of the geographic horizon(s) of this approach, debates about “transmission” and “ap- propriation,” and the role of the anthropology of Christianity in describing the fluid character of Christian movements. In addition, it addresses the problem of how to relate the history of world Christianity to a global history of religion, as well as the importance of considering issues of migration as central to our understanding of Christianity.

  • The Narrative of the Baptist Association of South Africa and Its Significance for the Indian Baptist Church in Kwazulu-Natal

    The Narrative of the Baptist Association of South Africa and Its Significance for the Indian Baptist Church in Kwazulu-Natal

    The narrative of the Baptist Association of South Africa and its significance for the Indian Baptist Church in KwaZulu-Natal Rodney Ragwan1 Palmer Theological Seminary, Wynnewood, USA Abstract This article is an attempt to reclaim the history of the Baptist Association of South Africa. It provides background information about a community of indentured labourers, discusses the socio-political context of this community, and examines the contributions of three Indian-born missionaries and women of the Baptist Association of South Africa. Finally, it discusses the limitations of South African Baptist Historiography. Background In the late 1800s, natives from India arrived in South Africa to work as indentured labourers on the tea and sugar estates in what was then the Colony of Natal. Among this group of labourers were about 150 Telugu-speaking Baptists. They settled in the Natal North Coast, where they worked on Sir Leigh Hulett’s Tea Estate in Kearsney, near Stanger. In 1903 the Telugu-speaking Baptists invited John Rangiah from India to serve as their missionary. The Telugu Home Missionary Society in India sent John Rangiah, his wife and two children, to Natal to work among the Baptist indentured labourers (NIBA 1953:12). Reverend John Rangiah John spent much of his boyhood (in India) among American Baptist missionaries. He served as a Sunday school teacher, Sunday school superintendent, lay preacher, evangelist, treasurer and deacon. Rangiah also served as headmaster of the Nellore Boy’s School from 1897-1900 and of the Nellore Girl’s School from 1901-1903. On 20 April 1903, he was ordained as a minister of the Lone Star Baptist Church (NIBA News 1953:10).

    Black Peril, White Fear – Representations of Violence and Race in South Africa’s English Press, 1976-2002, and Their Influence on Public Opinion Inauguraldissertation zur Erlangung der Doktorwürde der Philosophischen Fakultät der Universität zu Köln vorgelegt von Christine Ullmann Institut für Völkerkunde Universität zu Köln Köln, Mai 2005 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The work presented here is the result of years of research, writing, re-writing and editing. It was a long time in the making, and may not have been completed at all had it not been for the support of a great number of people, all of whom have my deep appreciation. In particular, I would like to thank Prof. Dr. Michael Bollig, Prof. Dr. Richard Janney, Dr. Melanie Moll, Professor Keyan Tomaselli, Professor Ruth Teer-Tomaselli, and Prof. Dr. Teun A. van Dijk for their help, encouragement, and constructive criticism. My special thanks to Dr Petr Skalník for his unflinching support and encouraging supervision, and to Mark Loftus for his proof-reading and help with all language issues. I am equally grateful to all who welcomed me to South Africa and dedicated their time, knowledge and effort to helping me. The warmth and support I received was incredible. Special thanks to the Burch family for their help settling in, and my dear friend in George for showing me the nature of determination. Finally, without the unstinting support of my two colleagues, Angelika Kitzmantel and Silke Olig, and the moral and financial backing of my family, I would surely have despaired. Thank you all for being there for me. We were cut off from the comprehension of our surroundings; we glided past like phantoms, wondering and secretly appalled, as sane men would be before an enthusiastic outbreak in a madhouse.

    A STUDY OF THE PERCEIVED CAUSES OF SCHISM IN SOME ETHIOPIAN-TYPE CHURCHES IN THE CAPE AND TRANSVAAL, 1884-1925 by JOAN ANNE MILLARD submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF THEOLOGY in the subject CHURCH HISTORY at the UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AFRICA PROMOTER: PROFESSOR GJ PILLAY JUNE 1995 ***************** I declare that A study of the perceived causes of some Ethiopian­ type churches in the Cape and Transvaal 1884-1925 is my own work and that all the sources that I have used or quoted have been indicated and acknowledged by means of complete references. Joan A Millard SUMMARY During the period 1884-1925 Ethiopian-type schisms from mission churches occurred for a number of reasons. Generalisations of these reasons have been made by numerous authors. By generalising the causes of schism the particular reasons why each independent church 1eader 1eft the mission church are ignored. The thesis shows how each schism was due to unique circumstances in the mission church as well as to factors, for example, the personal feelings of the independent church leader. In each case there was a point of no return when the founder of the independent church no longer felt he could accept the status quo. There were two government commissions that investigated the independent or "separatist" churches during these years - the South African Native Affairs Commission of 1903-1905 and the 1925 South African Native Affairs Commission which investigated the "Separatist Churches". The testimony of the white government officials and missionaries and the black church leaders has been compared with the findings in the reports.

    FUGITIVE QUEENS: Amakhosikazi and the Continuous Evolution of Gender and Power in KwaZulu-Natal (1816-1889) by CAELLAGH D. MORRISSEY A THESIS Presented to the Department of History and International Studies and the Robert D. Clark Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts or Science December 2015 An Abstract of the Thesis of Caellagh Morrissey for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Department of History and International Studies to be taken December 2015 Title: Fugitive Queens: Amakhosikazi and the Evolution of Gender and Power in KwaZulu-Natal (1816-1889) Professor Lindsay F. Braun Amakhosikazi (elite women) played a vital role within the social, economic, and political reality of the Zulu pre-colonial state. However, histories have largely categorized them as accessory to the lives of powerful men. Through close readings of oral traditions, travelogues, and government documentation, this paper discusses the spaces in which the amakhosikazi exhibited power, and tracks changes in the social position of queen mothers, as well as some members of related groups of elite women, from the early years of the Zulu chiefdom in the 1750s up until the 1887 annexation by Britain and their crucial intervention in royal matters in 1889. The amakhosika=i can be seen operating in a complex social space wherein individual women accessed power through association to political clans, biological and economic reproduction, manipulation, and spiritual influence. Women's access to male power sources changed through both internal political shifts and external pressures. but generally increased in the first half of the 1800s, and the declined over time and with the fracturing of Zulu hegemony.

    Annual Meeting of the Yale-Edinburgh Group on World Christianity and the History of Mission

    #YaleEdin2021 Annual Meeting of the Yale-Edinburgh Group on World Christianity and the History of Mission Digital Conference 22nd – 24th June 2021 Hosted by Co-Sponsored by Centre for the Study of Wolrd Christianity Yale Divinity School University of Edinburgh Yale University http://www.cswc.div.ed.ac.uk https://divinity.yale.edu Welcome to #YaleEdin2021 We welcome you warmly to the Annual Meeting of the Yale-Edinburgh Group on World Christianity and the History of Mission. Since 1992, the Annual Meeting has been the flagship conference of the Group, bringing together scholars to exchange ideas on the academic study of local and transnational expressions of Christianity from all over the world. Since the maiden conference in 1992 entitled “From Christendom to World Christianity,” the Group has boldly and impactfully engaged the difficult question of culture and its dynamic relationship with the Christian belief and lived experiences. We have addressed both the content and modes of cultural expressions and interpretations of the Christian faith with a view to empowering academic and missiological approaches that promote conceptual clarity in the complex field of World Christianity as well as innovative approaches to mission in today’s world. This year’s conference on “Print, Oral, and Digital Cultures in World Christianity and the Hisotry of Mission” continues in exactly this vein. It uses the language of culture to speak about three different mediums in which the Christian message is communicated and the Christian life is practiced. We look forward to the presentations exploring how these three mediums are shaped and are themselves transformed through Christian application, appropriation, and contemplation, be it through liturgy and worship, spritiaual formation and pastoral care, evangelism and mission, or academic research and pedagogy.
