SUMMARY:Missionary-Writer: Arthur H. Smith and his Chinese Narrative
DESCRIPTION:\n	Duan Huaiqing (Associate Professor in the Department of Chin
 ese Language and Literature\, Fudan University\; HYI Visiting Scholar)\n	C
 hair/discussant: Ellen Widmer (Mayling Soong Professor of Chinese Studies\
 ; Professor of East Asian Studies\, Wellesley College)\n\n	Co-sponsored wi
 th the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies\n\n\n	Arthur H. Smith (明恩
 溥\, 1845-1932) evangelized and lived in China for more than 50 years. He
  not only carried out theological work as a missionary\, but also observed
  and experienced everyday life in China\, and seemingly found his mission 
 in secular daily life\, which can be seen in his writings such as Village 
 Life in China\, Chinese Characteristics\, and Proverbs and Common Sayings 
 from the Chinese. Unlike his missionary colleagues\, 明恩溥 focused mor
 e on the daily lives of Chinese people than on literary China. Through his
  simple and direct writing style\, he presented his observations to foreig
 n readers\, showing them the ‘other’ side of China or even an entirely
  new China. His narrative rhetoric naturally followed his experiences\, ob
 serving and discovering without interior tension or conflict\, and transce
 nded the point of view of the conventional missionary.
