This volume explores the Nineteenth-century home and overseas missionary and philanthropic movements, focussing on the roles of men and women, middle-class formation, and ideas of race and cultural difference.This volume presents new primary research. It offers a new approach to missionary philanthropy and to understandings of the place of global issues in domestic culture. It presents a re-evaluation of women's roles in a national and international movement for reform. It brings together traditional religious history with social and cultural history of missions.This volume concerns the missionary philanthropic movement which burst onto the social scene in early nineteenth century in England, becoming a popular provincial movement which sought no less than national and global reformation.
