- Summary:
- The Korean Mission was set up in 1889 as an Anglican mission agency, funded by the Society for the Propagation of the Gospel and various other donations. This collection consists of the records of this Anglican mission from 1889-1987 and covers the personal experiences of missionaries in Korea during times of hardship, including the Second World War and the Korean War. The records also document the post war development of theological training and the creation of a Korean priesthood, culminating in an autonomous province of Korea within the Anglican Communion in 1993.
