An examination of the importance of the work of missionary women during a transformative period in China's history.
Transnational Cooperation and the Christian Women’s Community in Canton, 1847–1951 is a groundbreaking investigation into the work of missionary women during a transformational period in the history of China. Focused on women’s work in Guangzhou (Canton) this book demonstrates the dynamic intercultural cooperation between Chinese Christian women and western missionaries. Significantly, it affirms that women missionaries and newly empowered Chinese Christian women created a common space that provided educational, social, and medical services in addition to the evangelizing work of the mission. This study demonstrates the multiple agencies within this women’s network as women responded to changing US and Chinese societies.
