Full textThis research is a proposal for analysis of reports made by travelers that, starting in common region - Buenos Aires - went to Misiones, in northeastern Argentina, and published texts on the region between 1882 and 1898.Through these reports, we have the intention to develop a greater understanding of the vision that the authors had about Misiones. One of the guiding points of this work is the transposition of the opposition center versus periphery to a new space: the american. That is, the opposition used to oppose Europe, the \"center of the civilized world\" in relation to America; it would be a place that still \"lacked civilization\", whichis transported to this new space. From then, within Argentina itself, we have a center (Buenos Aires) and a periphery (here represented by Misiones). In this new space, this dichotomy suffered appropriations and recreations which are analyzed in the course of this work.

Full textThis dissertation aims to show in what measure the Georgian press of the second half of the nineteenth century, which constitutes a precious historical resource for study of this time period, allows us to follow the evolution of cultural transfers from Georgia to Europe and to understand the political and social profile of the Georgian mediators of these transfers. It manifests an interest in the discourses that accompany the introduction of modern living and technological progress in the country, in the reactions inspired by the European perspective on Georgia, and also in the experience that the Georgians bring back home after their travels in Europe. In fact, these travels allow them to observe European political and social life and to establish contacts with intellectual milieus in order to contribute, when they return to their country, to the success of the political projects with which they would identify. My work centers on the mechanisms that have made possible the flow of foreign cultural transmission in the fields of literature and science: the institution of an intellectual field, the elaboration of a new terminology, the establishment of selection criteria for foreign texts, and the establishment of discursive strategies facilitating the diffusion of such texts. In elucidating these criteria, which lead to the selection of European texts and authors or to the choice of references to Europe, I will analyze in what measure the transfers reflect a historical context characterized by the formation of a national consciousness and competing ideologies that, from the beginning years of the twentieth century, would lead Georgia from revolution to independence

Full textIn 1896 the Salesian missionaries established a school of Arts and Crafts in Alexandria, which was intended for working class European immigrants. In the following years, the mission founded other schools in the Delta and Suez Canal regions, but its reputation was particularly tied to its vocational training institutes. Threatened with disappearance under Nasser, like others foreign schools, the Salesian institutes managed to survive within the framework of Italo-Egyptian cooperation agreements. This dissertation questions the longevity of the missionary presence and the durability of the Salesian school network, hence expanding the boundaries between what is commonly delineated as colonial and post-colonial Egypt. The educational investment that Egyptian families made in Salesian vocational schools is analysed as well as the role the mission played in training trades and professional communities. Through the lens of the Salesian schools we catch a glimpse of the emergence of vocational education in Egypt, its educational, economic and political stakes. Moreover, the history of the Salesian missionaries and their schools is analysed within a broader framework: the history of Mediterranean migrations to Egypt, Church and mission histories as well as their aggiornamento, and eventually the history of Italo-Egyptian relations. The aim is to shed light on a history which is concurrently local and global. Distancing itself both from nationalistic and nostalgic approaches, this work aims to provide an original contribution to the history of missions and foreign education in Egypt

Full textThe cartography of Alexandria represents an invaluable and essential documentary source for the study of the town’s history. The present research is based upon an ensemble of 122 maps chosen from a corpus of almost 700 and intends to study the history of representations of Alexandria from the mid-19th century until the mid-20th century from four perspectives: maps published in almanacs and guidebooks; the cartographic production of the Nicohosoff family; insurance plans; and those developed in relation to the redevelopment of the town during the First World War. The cartography has been associated with other historical sources, such as memoires and travelogues, engravings and photography, including aerial photography, the press, guidebooks and almanacs, as well as family archives and wide-scale investigation on the ground.Setting the maps in context, though identifying or verifying the author, the date and, if not, the source work, alongside comparisons between maps will allow for a better understanding of the documents and manner of their most appropriate use. Particular attention is paid to the authors in order to link the history of men with the history of the town. Other themes are also tackled, such as that of the incessant copying, with the identification of a certain number of these sources, the competition involved, proprietary rights and the different actors within the cartography
Carnino, Guillaume. "L'invention de « la science » dans le second XIXe siècle : épistémologie, technologie, environnement, politique." Paris, EHESS, 2011. http://www.theses.fr/2011EHES0071.
Full text"Modern science", being both pure and applied, emerges in France at the very beginning of the second industrialization, and replaces the prior "natural philosophy". Its prestige expands through various activities: World fairs, freethinkers, popular science, arts & literature, school, patent rights. . . This practical and theoretical reorganization of knowledge , is firmly connected to the structure of industrial production: scientists study in details craftsmen's "know-how" to create reproducible procedures for manufacturing. Reputed neutral and objective, science ideologically binds the progressive base of the French Third Republic: thereafter, any opposition to environmental, technological or social changes catalysed by this new regime is treated as a dangerous attitude hiding reactionary thoughts secretly rooted in a backward political agenda. Secular resistance to sacred science is subsequently considered inaccurate and excluded from the political sphere, in the same way as the religious beliefs Galileo battled with are mocked as false. Therefore, science must not be any more considered as an epistemological question, but rather as a intrinsically contradictory institution (since it is issued from a social compromise): attempts to theorize it as unified and non-historical concept always trigger the same conflicts that prevailed to its birth

Full textThis dissertation examines the influence of the English-language press in China [in Hong Kong and the International concession of Shanghai] on the birth of a modern Chinese press from 1827 to 1911. The English-language press developed on the edge of a country where the only channel of information for 2000 years had been the Imperial gazette. The English language newspapers allowed British and Chinese residents to gather information which was both useful in their daily lives and to run their businesses. The English language papers first developed single-handedly for about thirty years before encouraging the birth of Chinese ones and serving as a support and model. The English-language press first incorporated Chinese pages before publishing entirely Chinese newspapers in the 1870s. Both the English-language press and the new Chinese press opened up to recent political issues and new personalities, such as westernized Chinese students, wealthy businessmen and scholar-gentry who had come to accept modernity for China. The Chinese-language press soon achieved editorial independence but cooperation between the two was maintained. Material and professional exchanges transformed themselves into mutual help and understanding, the British helping at times to overcome the bouts of censorship and repression from which the Chinese papers regularly suffered. The presence of English-language press enabled both technical and personnel transfers to take place at a time in history when China was confronted with the threat of modernity and had begun to experience debates about its future but had no local media to report on them. A modern Chinese press had thus become an absolute necessity for citizens who took pride in their past and were concerned with the weakened state of their country. It was achieved with the help of the English-language press which had taken roots a few decades earlier on the outskirts of China

Full textThis study is about the organization of public hygiene in the kingdom of Greece between 1833, when prince Otto of Bavaria ascends to the throne, and 1845, when the political and epidemiological frontiers of the kingdom are traced by a complete system of lazarettos and sanitary offices. We will firstly analyze the structures of sanitary prevention in the interior of the country (vaccinators, public health doctors, municipal doctors) as well as at its frontiers, and then we will focus on the measures against contagious diseases (such as the plague and smallpox) and against miasmas. We are also interested in examining the main diseases that determine the mortality of the period under scrutiny and the medical theories that explain the applicable sanitary measures. At the same time, we will review some of the aspects of the classical distinction of Erwin Ackerknecht between contagionism and miasmatic theory. Finally, we will study the difficult formation of an official group of medical professionals. The interest in public hygiene imposes the study of the biological construction of the state and, subsequently, of the state itself. Public hygiene defines the threats which it tries to prevent, and it creates and secures the collectivity. In the Police State of the cameralist king Otto, these developments are controlled by the bureaucracy, the administration, the public force and the science of medical police. Its purpose is to construct and order the public space, the space of state action, which is natural as well as social. This action of ordering imposes the centralization of health and at the same time it normalizes the natural elements and the social forces so that they can coordinate without resistance; in other words, the action of ordering pacifies. Medical police controls these processes by reconfiguring the ties that bind individuals with each other and with the geography, the nature and their diseases

The thesis deals with the most influential views on China among Russian sinologists, thinkers and writers but especially the so called Russian intelligentsia of the 19th century. As this study shows, the above mentioned views and evaluations of Chinese civilization played a prominent part in the formation of the intelligentsia’s social thought. The study discloses close links between political thought of intelligentsia and its views on China. The research methods of this thesis include documentary analysis, history analysis, cross-cultural and comparative civilization. The study is based on various kinds of Chinese, Russian, English, German, Japanese, French, and Spanish literary sources. Two main attitudes to Chinese civilization can be discerned in the 19th century Russia. The background was a heir to the legacy of the European age of Enlightenment, its main representative being N. Bichurin. The first one is exemplified by the famous writer L. Tolstoy, a vehement critic of the West, who admired Chinese civilization. The second trend was nourished by the idea of the so called “Yellow Peril” upheld both by liberal and by the socialist thinkers. Its main advocates were thinkers of quite different kinds: A. Herzen, V. Soloviov and some leading writers in the beginning of the 20th century: D. Merezhkovsky, V. Ivanov, A. Bely et al. This thesis contains five chapters: Introduction, Background of the 19th Century, L. Tolstoy on Chinese Civilization, Russian Intelligentsia’s Thoughts Relating to the “Yellow Peril” and Conclusion.

"十九世纪倫敦會傳教士在滬港兩地活動之研究(1843-1860)." Thesis, 2006. http://library.cuhk.edu.hk/record=b6074330.
Full textAfter the Opium War, under the diplomatic and military pressure of the west powers, the government of Qing was forced to give up the policy of forbidding the propagation of Christianity. Protestant Missions, like that of Catholic, gained legal status, and they could begin the process to entering China inland. After the occupation of Hong Kong by the British according to the Nanjing Treaty, LMS which sent missionaries to China began to move the missionary base to this colony. It decided that Benjamin Hobson and James Legge who once worked in Malacca took the responsibility of mission in Hong Kong. And Anglo-Chinese College at Malacca was also moved to Hong Kong, then became the mission station of LMS in Hong Kong. Meanwhile, the five ports, i.e. Guangzhou, Xiamen, Fuzhou, Ningbo and Shanghai, were opened, the LMS missionaries immediately resumed their exercises in Guangzhou, and opened new mission stations in other ports. Walter Henry Medhurst once worked in Batavia and William Lockhart went to Shanghai and established the LMS Press as a mission station in Shanghai. Chapter 3 will tell the stories of the early LMS missionaries leading by James Legge and W. H. Medhurst whose worked in Hong Kong and Shanghai respectively.
Chapter 6 will concern those detailed things occurred in Tai-ping rebellion movement and the 2nd Opium War. I want to explain the effects of the colonialism and the Chinese social turbulence to the missionaries.
In Chapter 7, at the conclusion of the thesis, I hope to make a righteous evaluation of these missionaries' various works in China.
Many articles and books on the history of the Protestant missions in China have been published, and some of them deal with the LMS missionaries and the early times of the mission history. Chapter 1 of this thesis surveys and comments upon the past results of research concerning this theme, and points out that such publications have laid foundation for my research, but there are still many problems should be studies thoroughly and systematically.
The period from 1807 to 1840 is the beginning and preparing era for the Protestant missions to China. In 1807, Robert Morrison, a missionary sent by LMS arrived in Guangzhou. His arrival marked the beginning of the LMS missionary enterprises in China. Because the government of Qing was tightly forbad propagation of Christianity, Robert Morrison and William Milne, another missionary sent by LMS, decided to organize "The Ultra-Ganges Mission", and founded a headquarter in Malacca named "Anglo-Chinese College". Afterwards, many Protestant missionaries, including LMS missionaries came to the South East Asia and undertook many tasks, such as learning Chinese, translation, publication and medical mission. Chapter 2 will introduce these activities of LMS missionaries in SEA at the period of "waiting for China".
The topic of this thesis is the history of the LMS (London Missionary Society) missionary movement in Hong Kong and Shanghai in the early period and focuses on the two missionary agencies, Anglo-Chinese College in Hong Kong and London Missionary Society Press in Shanghai. These two missionary agencies were important stages for the early Protestant LMS missionaries to play a key role in the evangelization and communication in China.
