    University of Bristol, Bristol, 2000. Paperback. Book Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. BOOK DESCRIPTION : 2000, 1st Edition; octavo paperback of 251 pages with b/w photographs, bibliography, and glossary etc.; in Very Good Condition. The Church Missionary Society (CMS) was set up in 1799 by evangelical Anglican clergy. During the colonial years the CMS came more and more to rely on lay workers, and discovered that female missionaries could be an advantage in influencing indigenous women. During the course of the 19th century the CMS firmaly established iself and in 1869 began missionary work in Iran. This study examines the role of the female missionaries who started to burgeon in Iran from the 1890s onwards. It seeks to offer a balanced understanding of these female missionaries by interpreting their motives within the historical and social context of their times, as well as bringing the ideologies of feminism, theology, and sociology to bear upon the subject. The ideological frameworks of orientalism, evangelicalism and feminism are discussed throughout the book and provide the underlying themes around which the material brought. The author argues for an appreciation of the paradoxical ways in which these women both conformed to and subverted the restrictions imposed upon them by what she calls "societal conventions".
