In the world of literature, history has its place. While in the making, the background is too near to allow of an appreciative perspective. Yet, it too often occurs that when desire reaches to the past, none remain to tell of that unwritten period. Thinking thus that with the passage of time there may arise persons who will question the significance of the letters F.W.B.M.S.; who its leaders were, for what it stood, and what it accomplished—for such the information in the following pages is gathered and here presented.--

Gender, Religion, and the Heathen Lands
Author: Maina Chawla SinghPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135653380
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
Seeking to extend existing scholarship on gender and colonialism and on women and American religion, this cross-cultural study examines the work of American missionary women in South Asia at several levels. A primary concern of the study is to historicize the interventions of these women and situate them within the dual contexts of the sending society and the receiving culture. It focuses on missionaries Isabella Thoburn and Ida Scudder, who founded some of the premier women's colleges and hospitals in British colonial India. The book also draws upon the narratives and reminiscences of South Asian women, now in their seventies, who attended such institutions in the 1940s, and whose voices texture our understanding of American women's missionary work in "Other" cultures.

Excerpt from History of the Free Baptist Woman's Missionary Society Time and space have been allowed for allusion to only a very few of the choice spirits, whose deeds of sacrifice for this enterprise might justly fill the pages of its history.

Clara M. Thompson’s Early Years and Professional Awakening
Author: Ann D'ErcolePublisher: Taylor & Francis
ISBN: 1000713660
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 195
Book Description
Ann D’Ercole tells the story of Clara M. Thompson, drawing extensively on unpublished archival interviews and correspondence, to provide a full and complex picture of an early American pioneer of psychoanalysis. The book begins by exploring Thompson’s youth, which was steeped in evangelical Christianity, and conveys the difficulty that Thompson experienced as she resisted the restrictive conventions of femininity prevalent at the time. Despite this, Thompson’s talent as a student continually shines through, as D’Ercole gives readers an account of Thompson’s life at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, where she would work alongside the innovative psychiatrist, Adolf Meyer. Thompson’s ground-breaking theoretical and clinical achievements continue to be celebrated, as D’Ercole explores Thompson’s life-changing experiences whilst in psychoanalytic treatment with Sándor Ferenczi. By allowing her voice to prevail, this book recognizes Thompson’s vital work in the formulation of interpersonal psychoanalysis, rendering it invaluable for interpersonal psychoanalysts wishing to understand Thompson’s role in the development of the school.

Book Description
With a reverent belief that the Heavenly Father is well pleased when his children not only appreciate His gracious dealings with them, but with loving gratitude let it be known to the world, this brief history of his leadings for twenty-seven years is given to the public. Should the reader detect errors in data here contained, kindly indulgence is begged and a charitable thought to the diverse and often meager sources from which information has been gleaned with untiring patience. Time and space have been allowed for allusion to only a very few of the choice spirits, whose deeds of sacrifice for this enterprise might justly fill the pages of its history. Many of these women are seldom seen or heard in public and their names are comparatively unknown outside their own circ le of friends, but their adherence to convictions of duty merits the highest commendation. In the schoolroom, in the shop, at the desk, in the solitude of the bereaved home, amid the cares of large households, with the ringing prattle of (childhood about them, their busy brains have planned, their hands have executed, and their hearts have prayed. Their counsels, interest, and labors have been unflagging and unfailing. For the speedy forgiveness of mistakes and for signal blessings that have contributed to make the record of this organization one of uninterrupted growth and progress, We thank thee, O Lord. Mary A. Lewis Ocean Park, Maine, Jan. 1, 1900
