Voll Zuversicht trat Hermann Gäbler in die Leipziger Mission ein und brachte rückhaltlos ein Vierteljahrhundert lang all seine Kraft in diese Lebensarbeit ein, an deren ungebrochenem Erfolg er zuletzt aber Zweifel hatte. Gäbler blieb stets seiner pietistischen und kleinbäuerlich-dörflichen Herkunft treu. Darauf aufbauend entwickelte er eine eigenständige missionarische Praxis, die er innerhalb des bürgerlichen und lutherisch-konfessionalistischen Milieus der Missionsgesellschaft bewahrte. So verschärfte er die Bedingungen zum Taufempfang. Statt auf der bloßen Kenntnis lutherischer Glaubenslehren zu bestehen, verlangte er die Teilnahme am gottesdienstlichen Leben und die Übernahme von christlicher Sitte und Moral. Im Gegenzug suchte er die missliche Lage der Landbevölkerung durch die Anlage von Brunnen und den Bau von Wegen zu verbessern. Die Missionsleitung schätzte seine Einsatzbereitschaft und tolerierte seine abweichenden Auffassungen, aber Gäbler blieb ein Außenseiter. Die Biographie zeichnet ein faszinierendes Bild vom täglichen Leben eines Missionars und seiner Familie, zugleich spiegelt sich in ihr die Geschichte der protestantischen Weltmission ebenso wie die der kolonialen Herrschaft in Indien bis in die Zeit des Ersten Weltkriegs. [A Missionary Life. Hermann Gäbler and the Leipzig Mission in South India (1891–1916)] Full of confidence, Hermann Gäbler entered the Leipzig Mission and gave for a quarter of a century his best and unreserved efforts to this life's work, of whose unbroken success he lately doubted. Gäbler always remained faithful to his pietistic and peasant village origins. Building on that, he developed a missionary practice of his own, which he safeguarded within the middle-class Lutheran contexts of the mission. So he introduced stricter conditions for receiving baptism. The knowledge of Lutheran doctrines was not sufficient, he demanded participation in worship life and the acceptance of Christian customs and morals. But he also tried to improve the living conditions of the rural population by building wells and roads. The Mission leaders estimated his commitment and tolerated his dissenting views, but he always remained an outsider. The biography gives a fascinating picture of the daily life of an missionary and his family and the background of Protestant and colonial history in India up to the First World War.

The First World War led to a fundamental reorganization of international relations. This had a profound impact on churches and mission agencies and their ecumenical networks. European Christianity was increasingly questioned. The shock was all the greater since the war alliances were formed without taking religious orientation into consideration. This volume examines the impact of the war on church and mission especially in Africa and Asia. The contributions provide a wide scope of historical analyses with a focus on the Hermannsburg Mission. The symposium was organized by the Ludwig-Harms-Kuratorium and the Fachhochschule für Interkulturelle Theologie Hermannsburg in 2018.

The title of this book originates from the self-description of Namibian Evangelists in their own words. African evangelists of the Rhenish Mission Society (RMS) played a crucial but mostly overlooked role in shaping the spiritual and social networks that transformed indigenous communities from the early nineteenth century. The author draws from a wide range of German, Namibian and South African archival sources that have been supplemented with a large number of interviews, to explore the history of the indigenous evangelists of the RMS. African supporters were often the first heralds of the new religion at remote villages and cattle posts before the white strangers made an appearance. The Namibian evangelists familiarity with the traditional culture and the local vernacular endowed them with a credibility that many of the European newcomers found difficult to acquire. By interweaving mission and church history between 1820 and 1990 with a biographical approach, the author brings a hidden chapter in Namibian history to life. Hans-Martin Milk, born in southern Africa, grew up in Namibia and lived there until he left into Exile in the 1970s. He returned to Namibia after independence to teach in Kavango. During this time he started his historical research on the RMS and the Kavango.

This academic inquiry attempts to explore the state of relations between the German Christian missionaries and the Christian English government before and after World War I in India; the unpleasant consequences on German Missionaries and their families by the unwarranted attack of the German Cruiser SMS Emden on the Madras Presidency, aggravated further by the act of a former soldier in the guise of a missionary. It uncovers the involvement of the German military, Nachrichtenstelle für den Orient (NfO) and the Hindu revolutionaries in causing unrest in India to derail the economy and tarnish the image of the British Government. It exposes the joining forces of diametrically opposite ideologies, the German Christian Government, German Christian missionary in NfO and the Indian Hindu revolutionaries, on a common platform. Likewise, it uncovers the manipulation of the selfsame Scripture by the doctrinally similar Christian denominations to whip up their clashing nationalistic passions. Further, this research narrates the bitter experiences of separated missionary spouses, scattered family members, the plight of children, deportation, gruelling voyages, seasickness, experiences of missionaries as Prisoners of War (POW), etc. The following three methods were combined for this research: a World War I historiographical approach coupled with a collective biographical approach and an entanglement approach. I used archived and published English, German, and Tamil sources. The main archives were the Political Archives of the Foreign Office (PAAA) in Berlin, the archives of the Franckeshe Foundations in Halle, the Mission Society in Leipzig, the British Library in London, and the United Theological College Bangalore, the Gurukul Lutheran Theological College, Chennai and Avanakappakam (National Archives), Chennai, the materials in the Political Foreign Office (PAAA) in Berlin concerning the correspondence between the Intelligence Service for the Orient and the Indian revolutionaries; the archive of the Franckeshe Foundation in Halle contained in the two-volumes in one file from the Indian Mission during the war (1914 -1916) and The Leibniz Centre for Modern Orient archives Berlin.

This book was originally published in 1966. This detailed study of the history of South West AFrica up to the date of Maharero's death in 1890 was originally published in German and appeared in an English version for the first time in 1938 when it was recognised as the first standard work on the subject. The author's extensive ethnological and linguistic studies made him especially well equipped to give a detailed account of the country and its people, and of the customs and languages of the different tribes. A considerable part of the book deals with the gradual colonization of the country by European pioneers whose various adventures are recorded in a mass of 'old notes, letters, reports and diaries'; and the historical side is supplemented by an ethological account of the native tribes. This is a scholarly work which, with its regard for folklore and tribal tradition as well as for the facts of history, must recommend itself to all lovers of South West Africa.

In The European Encounter with Hinduism Jan Peter Schouten offers an account of European travellers coming into contact with the Hindu religion in India. From the thirteenth century on, both traders and missionaries visited India and encountered the exotic world of Hindus and Hinduism. Their travel reports reveal how Europeans gradually increased their knowledge of Hinduism and how they evaluated this foreign religion. Later on, although officials of the colonial administration also studied the languages and culture of India, it was – contrary to what is usually assumed – particularly the many missionaries who made the greatest contribution to the mapping of Hinduism.
