This dissertation is a study of the involvement of Protestant and Roman Catholic missions in colonial Hong Kong's nineteenth century education system. The contributions which were made by both the Christian missions and their missionaries and the patterns which evolved as a result set the stage for an extensive Christian partnership with the government in providing public schooling in the twentieth century. Although concentrating on the years 1841 to 1897, the paper first traces the earlier contacts between the West and China which ultimately led to the establishment of Hong Kong. It next probes three external factors which had a particularly significant influence on the form of education which developed in the colony--Christian missiology, British education, and Chinese education. Then, the core of the dissertation concentrates on the direct involvement of the Christian missions in Hong Kong's nineteenth century education system over a span of fifty-six years which are divided into three distinct periods of time. The first period is from 1841 to 1859 when the missions' earliest contributions occurred, both in private endeavors, and in the government's subsidized schools. The second is from 1860 to 1878 when secular trends began to predominate in the government schools. The third is from 1879 to 1897 when there was renewed Christian participation in public educational programs, primarily through the revised Grant-in-Aid Scheme of 1879. Special consideration is given throughout to three missionary educators--Dr. James Legge, Bishop Thimoleon Raimondi, and Dr. Ernest J. Eitel--who all played a notable role in Christian education in the nineteenth century. The paper's conclusion summarizes the contribution of the Christian missions and briefly discusses its impact on subsequent educational developments in Hong Kong. The dissertation to a large extent has relied on primary and secondary source materials which have been collected in government and university libraries in Hong Kong, with particular emphasis being given to the Colonial Office Records of the British government. It also includes thirty-three tables with relevant details compiled from official government reports and from unofficial materials dealing with the colony's nineteenth century education system.
