未了中國情：樂靈生中國觀的變遷(1902-1937).

The renowned American missionary Frank Joseph Rawlinson came to China with the purpose of preaching to the heathens in China and bringing salvation to them. However, during his stay in China, he gradually changed his fixed black-and-white religious mindset, and eventually was filled with admiration for Chinese civilization. The conqueror's mentality disappeared, and his superiority as a westerner was replaced by a fervent "Chinese heart". Rawlinson's views on China were closely related to his religious views. He gradually abandoned his traditional evangelical beliefs and advocated liberal theology and social gospel. Rawlinson's attitude towards Chinese religions and Chinese culture are the fundamental aspects of his views on China. From "conquering paganism" to "promoting dialogue between religions", from "demonizing China" to "advocating Chinese culture", Rawlinson got rid of the deep-rooted prejudice against China and developed a strong sense of belonging and also value identification in Chinese culture. Rawlinson's views on China underwent a dynamic progressive transformation from prejudice to acceptance to praise, and the change was in close relation to multiple factors, for instance, his personal experiences, theological views, social background, and the international situation.
