何明華及其與中國關係之研究(1922-1966). / Study of Bishop R.O. Hall and his relationship with China (1922-1966) / CUHK electronic theses & dissertations collection / He Minghua ji qi yu Zhongguo guan xi zhi yan jiu (1922-1966).

In 1922, as the Missionary Secretary of the Student Christian Movement in UK, R. O. participated in the World's Student Christian Federation (WSCF), which gave him a special relationship with China and predestined him for his service in Hong Kong. During the Sino-Japanese War time, R. O. led and participated in many social movements, which strongly supported China to fight for freedom. Among these movements, the Chinese Industrial Co-operation Movement is the most famous one, through which R. O. maintained good relations with both Kuomingtang(KMT) and Chinese Communist Party (CCP). As a far-sighted church leader, he was deeply committed to building up a vigorous Chinese church. He was ahead of his time in ordaining Mok Sau Tseng as the first Chinese assistant bishop in South China in 1935, as well as ordaining Deaconess Florence Li Tim-Oi to be the first woman priest in the world in 1944. In 1956, R. O. visited the New Communist China as the first church leader from Hong Kong; after this visit, he was called "the pink Bishop". Because he then began to promote a positive view on the role of Communism in the development of China. Hong Kong in the 1950s and 1960s faced considerable social pressures. In the meantime, R. O. led the churches in massive response to the millions of refugees and played a significant role as one of the chief architects of the miracle of the post-war years in Hong Kong. Whether in Britain, China or Hong Kong, his concern for China and Chinese people was his expression of God's will in China in practice. / Ronald Owen Hall was an important and remarkable figure in the history of Christianity in China as the seventh Bishop of Hong Kong Anglican Church. He served as bishop of Hong Kong 34 years (1932-1966), which included being the Bishop of South China of Chung Hua Sheng Kung Hui (CHSKH) (1932-1951). / Though he has been well recognized as an influential figure, it is unfortunately that not much has been systematically written on his contribution to the history of Christianity in China. This dissertation therefore focuses on Bishop Hall and his relationship with China, and seeks to shed light on it through research about Bishop Hall, especially how deeply his unique theology influenced his relation to China. The study endeavors to explore how Bishop Hall sought to convey in practice God's will for China in interface between western Christian tradition and Chinese society. The historical data presented in this paper is based on a thorough and broad review of primary materials. The primary resources used in this thesis include the Archives of Bishop R. O. Hall and other relevant and important archives. Through this case study, it hopes to provide new insight on the missionary history in 20 Century. / 吳青. / Source: Dissertation Abstracts International, Volume: 70-06, Section: A, page: 2188. / Thesis (doctoral)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2008. / Includes bibliographical references (p. 194-203). / Electronic reproduction.
