The inculturation of Christianity in Late Imperial China, 1724-1840 : the emergence of a Chinese expression of Christianity during the 18th century, its perception by the Qing elite and the reaction of the stateLaamann, Lars Peter January 2000 (has links)
The thesis argues that Christianity underwent a profound process of inculturation during the "long eighteenth century", which was caused by the absence of foreign missionaries after the edict of 1724 and by the fact that the Christian centres moved from China's cities into the countryside and wilderness.

Healers in Tharaka : a case-study of the development of a professional 'jurisdiction'Giarelli, G. January 1994 (has links)
The thesis examines the process of social change among Tharaka agao (healers) in the Meru District of Kenya: it analyzes the rationale of the social and cultural processes involved for an existing occupation to become a recognized professional activity in modern Kenya. The thesis argues that a radical redefinition of professional 'jurisdictions' is required in the medical field. The concept of 'jurisdiction' is discussed here in metaphorical terms in order to question the common assumption that professionalization in the Western-type is the only possible model of development for African healers. The first part of the thesis, after information related to the structural and cultural context of Tharaka, provides an overview of the Tharaka experience of management of illness, with an emphasis on health-seeking behaviour and the division of labour in health care. The second part establishes the cultural boundaries of the healing 'jurisdiction' of the Ugao and the mechanisms used to gain the claimed control over it: this is done by presenting and analyzing the ethnographic material which I collected during a period of apprenticeship with three Tharaka healers. The third part investigates the social dimension involved in the development of that 'jurisdiction', by examining group formation among healers and the problems generated within the emerging profession. It also considers the matter of integration of Tharaka healers within the local health care system through an analysis of their interrelationship with the biomedical personnel and the health care facilities. Finally, it discusses the problem of legitimation the whole process of professional development raises at the local and national level.

Are KoreroNia, Eruera Te Whiti January 2010 (has links)
ABSTRACT This Project is a sculptural and spatial response to the concept of the Are Korero (house of history and learning) within the Paepae Ariki, Taputapuatea. In considering the philosophical and cultural basis that might encourage structure, the project investigates the re introduction of tribal art that might assist cultural revival and security, this tribal structure providing a platform and focus for its expression. The implications of such a proposition are twofold, on the one hand, the revivification of innovative, ancient cultural expressions to assist the concepts progress, and on the other, the realisation of a Pacific architecture to confirm, actuate and create, a new Polynesian reality. The thesis is 80% practice based work, accompanied by 20% exegesis.
