Abstract:
AbstractThe present study's objective is to analyze the phenomenon of the mustabsirūn in Twelver Shī'ism in modern times. The term mustabsir is used among (Twelver) Shī'ites to refer to someone who has left his previous faith, converted to Shī'ism and adopted its doctrines. In this study we inquire into the meaning of the term in general, in the Qur'ān and its commentaries, and as a specific term. We examine the motivation for conversion to Shī'ism, the types and status of converts and the reasons which drive them to convert, the pressures and threats which converts face from Sunnī circles and

During most of the modern history of the expansion of Western Christendom, China, as the world’s most populous country, was the great prize. Although the results were disappointing, as the numbers of converts both Protestant and Catholic remained relatively small throughout the height of China missions in the nineteenth and first half of the twentieth century, the promise of China missions never diminished. Despite the pre-eminence of China in overall mission history, very little attention has been given to the role and influence of China missions beyond the borders of China proper either to t

Abstract The success story of nineteenth-century Baptist missionary work among minority ethnic groups in Burma was one well-known facet of the early beginnings of modern Protestant missions.

In addition, the different target audiences of the Yiddish Romans and its varied use in practical missionary work are examined. As will be shown, Frommann’s translation and commentary also functioned as a principal reservoir for various missionary activities in Halle.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the conversion of seventeenth-century Vietnamese women to Catholicism and the narration of their conversions in the accounts of European missionaries. In Annam (as early-modern Europeans called the two polities Tonkin and Cochinchina), missionaries from the Jesuit order and from the French Missions Étrangères de Paris converted tens of thousands of women and men during the seventeenth century and composed narratives of their most notable converts. In the accounts women stand out for two reasons: a number were from high ranking court families, including members of the royal families, and a number of the lower-ranking women converts suffered from demonic possession. The most spectacular conversion cases concerned women spirit-mediums, who played an important role in Annamese religious observances as oracles. The missionaries described them as possessed by demons. Once converted, these former spirit-mediums became miracle workers, and thus fit into another category recognizable to European readers. But the Catholic Reformation had ambivalent feelings at best about such women playing an important role in the evangelization campaign. Thus missionaries seeking credibility and narrating conversions by working with what Annamese culture offered them stretched the limits of what was acceptable to their audience at home.

Abstract:
This chapter traces the racial implications of the Mormons’ forced removal in 1833 from Jackson County, Missouri, where the Mormons had hoped to build New Jerusalem. Non-Mormons in the county forced the Mormons out following accusations that the Mormons were “meddling” with black slaves and Indians in order to convert them and to foment racial violence. In exile, the Mormons’ practice of (relative) racial inclusion became more circumscribed, though one famous black convert, Elijah Abel, joined the church. Promising not to upset the nation’s racial hierarchy, early Mormon leaders focused on making white converts in America and in the first international missions to the British Isles. White Mormons also began to reexamine their own racial/genealogical identities. Through the ritual of the patriarchal blessing, Mormons discovered that most of them were not actually “gentiles,” but Israelites and natural born heirs to the sacred covenant that God made with Abraham.

The concluding chapter summarizes all the conceptual questions raised while analysing the topic of religious conversion in nineteenth-century Maharashtra. Using personal experience, the author explores whether Marathi Brahmin Christians could be considered an ethnic group in the early colonial period. Using arguments from the preface of this book, the author discusses how social stigma created family life and family associations among early Christian converts who converted and intermarried within and across colonial missions to form a separate social group that was outside both Marathi and Brahmin identity, and colonial identity. While this intellectual burgeoning group of Brahmin Christians did not survive after independence, their vernacular expressions of Christian piety constituted important notions about religious modernity in the colonial period. Finally, the author discusses how conversion became a mode of communication within Christian families that becomes inherent expressions of articulating dissent.

In the 1950s and 1960s, significant numbers of missionaries and converts began to object to evangelical Cold War triumphalism. Describing racial segregation in the American South, they pointed out the limits of American democracy. One of these critics, E. Stanley Jones, was a long-time missionary to India, member of the evangelical wing of the Methodist Church, and trustee of Asbury College in Kentucky. During revival meetings at his alma mater—and in speeches around the world—he preached against segregation. With critiques birthed from his involvement in the Sat Tal Ashram in the foothills of the Himalayas, his interactions with the Indian caste system, and his friendship with Mahatma Gandhi, he pointed out how racism sabotaged Christian missions and the reputation of American democracy abroad.

This chapter begins by examining how two peripheral artworks of the Virgin of Loreto, the eighteenth-century wooden statue from the Moxos missions and the seventeenth-century Roman painting by Caravaggio, each tapped into outside streams of Marian art. The same impetus for transformation is observed for the original icon of the Madonna of Loreto at the Italian shrine. Updates to this icon were spurred by an awareness of the world outside Loreto. The chapter concludes with a return to the frontier, to Canada, to consider some significantly named but lesser known Huron women converts who contributed to Mary's global public image. Overall, these case studies of modifications to the Virgin of Loreto reflect what mattered to people on both sides of the Atlantic about Mary at this time: she was alien, yet she was accessible; she moved, and she could also be moved.

Abstract:
This chapter traces a number of different trajectories whereby a religion emanating from Western societies became, in the course of the twentieth century, a faith rooted in the soil of West African or Melanesian societies. Catholic missions before Vatican II were fearful of unleashing the vernacular Bible on the laity and relied instead on a tightly controlled network of schools to grow a Christian community from childhood upwards. Conversion came not through sudden movements of indigenous revival and initiative, but through the steady growth in the numbers of school rolls and hence of the baptized. Meanwhile, Protestant mission schools were even more conscious than their Catholic counterparts of the dangers of mere head knowledge or forms of adherence to the church that appeared to lack strong personal conviction. The real point of education was that it opened the door to read the Bible for oneself, in one's own language, and thus laid the individual soul open to the regenerating power of the Spirit. However, reading the scriptures in one's own language was enough to permit individual and corporate appropriations of the Christian message that radically challenged European preconceptions. As vernacular translations exposed the extent to which European Christianity had denuded the biblical text of its prophetic and miraculous elements, Africans and Melanesians who had unusual charismatic gifts or mana sometimes assumed the mantle of the prophets and challenged their missionary mentors to join their many indigenous converts in believing their mighty works.

Abstract:
Abstract It is known that a Lyapunov Perron (L-P) transformation converts a quasi-periodic system into a reduced system with a time-invariant coefficient. Though a closed form expression for L-P transformation matrix is missing in the literature, the application of combination of multiple theories would aid in such transformation. In this work, the authors have worked on extending the Floquet theory to find L-P transformation. As an example, a commutative system with linear quasi-periodic coefficients is transformed into a system with time-invariant coefficient analytically. Furthermore, for n
