Book Description
Excerpt from The Story of Mission Work Among the French in Belleville, Paris: An Account of What I Saw and Heard During a Three Week's Visit to Miss. De Broen in 1877 The pages, following this Preface, contain a narrative as interesting and instructive, as any yet given to the world in this age of various and multitudinous composition. And as history has often been said to be philosophy teaching by examples; so here a great part of the problem of "Woman's Mission" is shewn by the life and actions of Miss de Broen. All the women in England may learn from these singular details (what some of them have, long ago, learned among their own people) how great is the power of the female sex over the mightiest and fiercest of the human race. "A soft answer turneth away wrath;" and so, with these outcasts, manifest affection and a gentle manner abate, nay, conciliate, opposition.

British Protestant Missions and the Conversion of Europe, 1600–1900
Author: Simone MaghenzaniPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429516843
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
This book is the first account of British Protestant conversion initiatives directed towards continental Europe between 1600 and 1900. Continental Europe was considered a missionary land—another periphery of the world, whose centre was imperial Britain. British missions to Europe were informed by religious experiments in America, Africa, and Asia, rendering these offensives against Europe a true form of "imaginary colonialism". British Protestant missionaries often understood themselves to be at the forefront of a civilising project directed at Catholics (and sometimes even at other Protestants). Their mission was further reinforced by Britain becoming a land of compassionate refuge for European dissenters and exiles. This book engages with the myth of International Protestantism, questioning its early origins and its narrative of transnational belonging, while also interrogating Britain as an imagined Protestant land of hope and glory. In the history of western Christianities, "converting Europe" had a role that has not been adequately investigated. This is the story of the attempted, and ultimately failed, effort to convert a continent.
