Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Maker of the New Orient: Samuel Robbins Brown, Pioneer Educator in China, America, and Japan, the Story of His Life and Work There is a new Orient, and the chief instruments in its making have been the English-speaking peoples. A century ago that part of the world ruled by Chinese ideas cared nothing for human beings, even for its own people, beyond the border. Now the once hermit nations have entered humanity´s brotherhood. China has all the living nations of Europe for her neighbors. Korea has been reborn. Japan is a world-power. The changes within, wrought by the leaven from Christendom, are even more wonderful than those phenomenal and external. In this twentieth century we can see in dear perspective how the transformation has been wrought. There were many agencies and influences stimulating evolution, but none were more potent than the personality and work of the American missionaries in China, Japan, and Korea.
