Meeting the West in a Conference Hall: Gilbert Reid’s Lectures at the International Institute in Shanghai
2018
During the late Qing dynasty, a profound social and cultural transformation was promoted in China by an élite group of intellectuals, inspired by the works of for- eign thinkers and scholars. In this context, the contribution of the Protestant Gil- bert Reid (1857-1927) – and his Mission among the Higher Classes in China, which later become the International Institute of Shanghai – went far beyond mere proselytism, promoting the intercultural dialogue as a basis for China’s progress. Such an innovative enterprise, accomplished through an original exploitation of the catalyst power of the newborn Chinese press, deserves a closer look. To do so, this paper focuses on Reid’s series of lectures…

The history of census of cripples (“Reichskrüppelzählung”)
2000
The census of cripples ("Reichskruppelzahlung") in the German Reich plays a central role in the development of orthopaedic surgery. Local censuses conducted by protestant ministers had already pointed out the great number of disabled children without appropriate care. It was the achievement of Konrad Biesalski, who was an orthopaedic surgeon, and of Eduard Dietrich, a Prussian government official, that a nation-wide census for disabled people was conducted. The concerns of the Reich-health-administration, which had complained about the way the survey was to be made, were neglected. These concerns were not all unjustified. Both the planning of the census itself and the technical interpretati…
Orthodoxy and Evangelicalism: An Overview of Their Relationship from the Perspective of Moral Values
2021
Orthodox–Evangelical relationships are dominated by proselytism (at least in Eastern Europe and in the former Soviet Union). This is understood as church conversion practiced through unfair means among people who are already Christians, belonging to so-called “historical churches.” However, beyond it, there is a real potential for cooperation using moral values as a starting point. As there is an increasing disagreement between the Orthodox and mainline Protestant on moral values, the Orthodox and Evangelicals might increase their cooperation as they witness traditional values of Christianity. This kind of cooperation might be partially contextual, but it is based on Biblicism, which both O…

Les prodiges dans les violences des guerres de religion sous le regard protestant
2016
International audience; Miracles, prodiges et manifestations surnaturelles ou délirantes émaillent les conflits humains depuis la nuit des temps, et les chroniques ne manquent jamais de les rapporter. Dans les sociétés anciennes, les phénomènes que l'on qualifierait aujourd'hui d'irrationnels font partie du quotidien de la guerre. Avant une bataille, on scrute avidement les signes célestes, on consulte oracles et astrologues, on prie pour son salut. Tel Napoléon, les grands capitaines qui vont au combat se sentent protégés par leur "bonne étoile". Chercher à se concilier les forces mystérieuses qui gouvernent nos destinées relève autant de la foi que d'une certaine forme de raison. Mais les…
