This will be preceded by a meeting of the Council, August 1-3. The World Methodist Historical Society is planning a program for Thursday afternoon, August 4, which will be one among a variety of seminars to be offered. Though still tentative, plans are being made for an informative bus tour starting with lunch and ending with dinner on the Inanda Heritage Route with visits to Methodist Churches and lectures on South African Methodist history. The seminar will be limited to 45 people and registration will be required. Expenses for the bus, meals, and speakers will be covered by the World Methodist Historical Society. Once plans are finalized, information will be available through www.gcah.org; click on the World Methodist Historical Society link. Information on the Conference can be accessed through www.worldmethodistcouncil.org. The summer of 2011 will also be marked by the Seventh Historical Convocation, which will be July 21-24, in Oklahoma City. The theme will be “United Methodism in a Land of Many Cultures: Native American and Latino History.” The Convocation will begin on Thursday evening with the presentation of the General Commission on Archives and History’s Distinguished Service Award to Dr. Kenneth E. Rowe, long-time Methodist librarian at Drew University and a leading scholar and bibliographer on Methodist history. The Convocation will include lectures and visits to Latino and Native American churches. The meetings will be at Oklahoma City University and will be hosted by the Oklahoma Conference and the Oklahoma Indian Missionary Conference. The Convocation will include the annual meeting of the Historical Society of The United Methodist Church and will be preceded by the annual meeting of the General Commission on Archives and History.

WILLIAMS 3 Methodist History, 49:1 (October 2010) The Child’s ANTI-SLAVERY BOOK AND OTHER SUNDAY SCHOOL BOOKS OF THE METHODIST EPISCOPAL CHURCH, 827-8802 CYNTHIA M. ROGERS On April 21, 1859, John B. McFerrin, editor of the Publishing House of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, in Nashville, declared in the Nash- ville Christian Advocate that certain works published for the Methodist Epis- copal Church would “never see the light” in Southern church libraries. 3 “In- stance, The Child’s Anti-Slavery Book, from the press a few weeks since—a work we regard as far worse than Uncle Tom’s Cabin . Such publications are rank with abolition sentiments, and cannot be sold by our agency . .”4 Indeed the high emotions surrounding the split over slavery at General Conference in 1844, as well as a commitment to the development of Sun- day School library books, led the General Conference of 1848 of The Meth- odist Episcopal Church to order the Book Concern to publish “antislavery tracts,”5 which soon included The Child’s Anti-Slavery Book. This effort distinguished the Methodist Episcopal Sunday School Union (SSU) from the older and larger American Sunday School Union (ASSU), which refused to take a stand on slavery in its publications for children.6 An examination of The Child’s Anti-Slavery Book, in addition to several other books published for the libraries attached to Methodist Sunday Schools, offers a window into the religious, social, and educational priorities of the early Methodists. The plots, characters, and themes of the books reveal how concepts about child- hood and children’s literature changed over the course of the nineteenth cen- tury. And the settings for much of this Sunday School literature reflect the broader social themes that resounded across the nineteenth century. 1 The Child’s Anti-Slavery Book: containing a few words about American Slave Children; and stories of slave-life (New York: Carlton & Porter for the Sunday School Union of the Methodist Episcopal Church, 1859). 2 This paper draws from the exhibit, “Instructing Children & Families: Sunday School Books of the Methodist Episcopal Church, 1827-1880,” curated by Cynthia M. Rogers, at the United Methodist Archives & History Center, Drew University, Madison, NJ, in 2008. The Methodist Library at Drew University has become a repository for a large collection of books published for the Methodist Sunday School Union during this period. 3 James Penn Pilkington, The Methodist Publishing House, vol. 1 (Nashville: Abingdon, 1968), 390-301. 4 Pilkington, 391. 5 Pilkington, 391. 6 Anne M. Boylan, Sunday School: The Formation of an American Institution 1790-1880 (New Haven: Yale UP, 1988), 80. 4 The Child’s Anti-Slavery Book 5 One of the key figures in the early development of the Methodist Sun- day School and its publications was Daniel Parish Kidder (1815-1891), who served as Corresponding Secretary of the Sunday School Union and general editor of Sunday School books and tracts from 1844-1856. Kidder is widely credited with improving the Methodist Sunday School and its teaching and for dramatically increasing the number and selection of books available to Sunday School libraries. Kidder later served as Professor of Practical The- ology at Drew Seminary from 1871-1881, and his papers, which offer rich details of that early Sunday School period, are part of the Methodist Collec- tion at Drew University. An overview of the Sunday School movement and the emergence of the Methodist Sunday School Union with its commitment to the development of libraries for children and families will provide the backdrop for the dis- cussion of several select Sunday School books (1827-1880), including The Child’s Anti-Slavery Book. Sunday School The concept of Sunday School, along with the development of books and teaching materials, began in England.

  • Women in the Wesleyan and United Methodist Traditions: a Bibliography
    1 Women in the Wesleyan and United Methodist Traditions: A Bibliography Edited by Susan E. Warrick The General Commission on Archives and History The United Methodist Church P.O. Box 127, 36 Madison Ave. Madison, New Jersey 1991, 2003 INTRODUCTION The history of women in the Wesleyan and United Methodist tradition is one of almost ceaseless activity. From faithful attendance in worship to service as missionaries, teachers, pastors' wives, preachers, organizers, and reformers, women stepped from their homes into a needy world. In the fruitful collaboration of women and the church is written much of the history of the Wesleyan movement. Women's church work is also the foundation of their involvement in social and political reform. This bibliography reflects the rich variety of women's work in the church; however, one of the lessons learned early in the process was that scholars have only begun to recover and interpret the history of that work. We hope that this bibliography will spur examination of some long-neglected areas. This effort is indebted to Kenneth E. Rowe's pioneering contribution, Methodist women: a guide to the literature (1980), the first comprehensive bibliography of titles related to women in the Wesleyan tradition. For several years thereafter, Carolyn DeSwarte Gifford and Karen Heetderks Strong, then of the General Commission staff, collected information on additional sources, keeping pace with a growing body of scholarship. The first edition of this bibliography incorporated their work with my own, and was completed in 1991. The current edition includes titles published up through December 2001. This bibliography is extensive, but it cannot claim to be exhaustive.

  • Scissors, Paste and Social Change: the Rhetoric of Scrapbooks of Women’S Organizations, 1875-1930
    SCISSORS, PASTE AND SOCIAL CHANGE: THE RHETORIC OF SCRAPBOOKS OF WOMEN’S ORGANIZATIONS, 1875-1930 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Amy L. Mecklenburg-Faenger, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Nan Johnson, Adviser Professor James Fredal Adviser Professor Kay Halasek English Graduate Program Copyright by Amy L. Mecklenburg-Faenger 2007 ABSTRACT In recent years, scholars in rhetoric and composition studies have focused increasingly more attention on “everyday” rhetorical practices, particularly those of marginalized groups, as well as the alternative educational sites where such practices are taught and learned. Feminist historians such as Anne Ruggles Gere, Jacqueline Jones Royster, and Wendy Sharer argue that women’s organizations functioned as significant sites of rhetorical education for women throughout the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, an era in which women were denied access to higher education and public spheres of rhetorical activity. In “Scissors, Paste and Social Change: the Rhetoric of Scrapbooks of Women’s Organizations, 1875-1930,” I extend the focus on women’s organizations as educational spaces by examining the scrapbooks compiled by Progressive Era women in literary and social clubs and reform organizations like temperance and suffrage. I argue that progressive-era women appropriated the gendered genre of the scrapbook to compose vernacular histories of women’s reform efforts that situated women within a larger narrative of citizenship and national progress. Furthermore, I argue that scrapbooks served as sources of invention and self-education, similar in function to commonplace books, even though gendered perceptions of both genres typically assigns commonplace books to public rhetorical pursuits and scrapbooks ii to private domestic hobbies.
