The plans that motivated their voyage were no less grand than taking part in the Protestant conversion of the entire world. Over the next several decades, these men and women were joined by hundreds more American missionaries at stations all over the globe ... In describing how American missionaries interacted with a range of foreign locations (including India, Liberia, the Middle East, the Pacific Islands, North America, and Singapore) and imperial contexts, Christian Imperialism provides a new perspective on how Americans thought of their country's role in the world. While in the early republican period many were engaged in territorial expansion in the west, missionary supporters looked east and across the seas toward Africa, Asia, and the Pacific. Conroy-Krutz's history of the mission movement reveals that strong Anglo-American and global connections persisted through the early republic. Considering Britain and its empire to be models for their work, the missionaries of the American Board attempted to convert the globe into the image of Anglo-American civilization."--Publisher's description American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions History American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions fast 1800-1899 fast Missions, American History 19th century Political messianism United States History 19th century Christianity and politics United States History 19th century Christianity and politics fast Missions, American fast Political messianism fast United States fast History fast Stoppsignal FRED nebis DS IDSBB 100 1- Conroy-Krutz Emily (DE-588)1077058144 Verfasser aut IDSBB 490 0- The United States in the world SWISSBIB 441366597 BK020000 XK020000 XK020000 IDSBB A152 A152 FH BM Q-11.1//BM 29830 NELA1522002 IDSBB B400 B400 400H5 BeM RFA 90789 NELB4001812 IDSBB DSV51 DSV01 B400 http://www.ub.unibas.ch/tox/IDSBB/006831576/PDF pdf VIEW Inhaltsverzeichnis
