| Research Abstract |
It has taken me three years to research and transcribe the journals and letters to the London Missionary Society of Robert Morrison, who is the first Protestant Missionary to China. Most of the documents are in the possession of the School of Oriental and African Studies (SOAS), University of London, and the British Library.My study of these documents has clarified Morrison’s views on Chinese study and translation when he edited his Chinese and English Dictionary and translated his Chinese Bible. Moreover, his important roles in bridging Eastern and Western culture have been spelled out. It has been confirmed by this research that many of Morrison’s Chinese translations of English terms are the base for the Japanese translation of the same terms. In other words, the Chinese characters for these terms are the same in both Chinese and Japanese.
