In the epilogue, Artman describes Kuhlman’s deteriorating health due to heart disease, the controversial changing of her will, and her death at the age of sixty-nine. (Significantly, Kuhlman is buried at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale, California, the same place as Aimee Semple McPherson. This is an irony Artman does not mention, perhaps to keep Kuhlman out of the shadow of McPherson’s ministry, as Kuhlman would have wanted.) Artman concludes the book by considering Kuhlman’s spiritual “heirs,” being careful to position her descendants safely away from Benny Hinn and various other prosperity preachers. There is much to commend about The Miracle Lady. Artman demonstrates an expert grasp of Pentecostalism and its “descendant, charismatic Christianity” (9). Artman takes both seriously, treating their ideas and commitments with the respect of an “insider” even as she writes a critical biography like an “outsider.” Furthermore, Artman does an excellent job describing the context of Kuhlman’s ministry—not only its religious context, but its larger cultural context with the advent of radio and television, feminism, the rise of Norman Vincent Peale and “positive thinking,” and the mood of post–World War II America. This is a fine work of intellectual and cultural history. What about the relationship of Kathryn Kuhlman to the gentrification of charismatic Christianity? Is Artman’s thesis convincing? To some degree, yes. However, for it to be stronger, there needs to be more evidence that what was experienced privately (through Kuhlman’s radio and television ministries) actually had significant public outcomes. Here is where the dearth of other primary sources hurts Artman’s cause. The reader wonders how many markets did Kuhlman’s ministries reach? Audience size? Letters from audience members? Information about who financially supported the ministry? More news stories from the popular periodicals of the day to demonstrate gentrification? Apart from these sources we are left mainly to speculate about the gentrification thesis. What seems to be without question is the gentrification of Kathyrn Kuhlman. From her humble beginnings in Missouri to her international reputation as a faith healer and evangelist, Kuhlman moved from obscurity to prominence. But like various cities in our nation’s history, Kuhlman’s life and ministry has fallen on hard times through scholarly neglect. In recognizing Kuhlman’s outsized influence on charismatic Christianity, Artman’s work is itself a form of gentrification as the “Miracle Lady” is restored to a central place in the story of American religion.}, number={3}, journal={CHURCH HISTORY}, author={Kalinga, Owen J.

It examines him in the context of the many ‘transnational’ Malawians whose activism was rooted in the intellectual influences to which they were exposed during periods of work and study abroad. Following many years living and working in South Africa, Musopole returned to Nyasaland, where he became a local organiser. His prominence and notoriety increasing during the state of emergency in 1959. A study of Musopole gives us the opportunity to understand more fully the nature of problems that rural small-scale farming communities had to contend with under colonial rule and the manner in which they mobilised their reaction in the post-Second World War era. In this regard, the article highlights the significance of local organisation in the process that led to decolonisation. Musopole’s career in post-colonial Malawi also shows how some independent-minded people fared in the evolving single-party system that was to become a dominant feature of the country under the presidency of Hastings Kamuzu Banda.}, journal={JOURNAL OF SOUTHERN AFRICAN STUDIES}, author={Kalinga, Owen J.

It is divided into three sections. The first section explains the factors responsible for the heightened political temperature in the period preceding the emergency; this is followed by a description of some individual events that occurred earlier that year and during the state of emergency itself. In the process, it shows the uncompromising attitudes of the government and the governed towards each other and, thus, the inevitability of the conflict. Finally, the article examines the manner in which the changing political climate of the time affected indigenous power dynamics and social relations, especially among the Ngonde, the numerically preponderant inhabitants of the lakeshore area of the district.}, number={4}, journal={JOURNAL OF SOUTHERN AFRICAN STUDIES}, author={Kalinga, Owen J.

Concentrating on the production of history in the 1960s, the paper shows how the decade marked the beginnings of serious research, teaching and public discourse of Malawi's history. It proceeds to examine factors, such as the existing literature, which helped to fhshion the direction which the players, mainly teachers and researchers, took in accomplishing their tasks. In this connection the paper considers the manner in which Harry Johnston, the first person to write widely on the peoples of the Lake Malawi region, influenced the historiography of the country. It also evaluates the role of the Society of Malawi and its publication, the Society of Malawi ffournal, in the production of history. Finally, the article pays attention to the ways in which the work of historians was affected by President Kamuzu Banda and the policies and actions of his ruling Malawi Congress Party. AMONG NOTABLE developments which have accompanied the democratization process in Malawi during the past five years has been a review of the factors which led to these transformations in a country which for thirty years had been absolutely dominated by Dr Hastings Kamuzu Banda and his Malawi Congress Parcy. Some students of Malawian affairs have examined the process itself by tracing the emergence of the various wings of opposition groups, their agendas and programmes and their efforts at establishing and maintaining a coalition against the ruling party. These scholars have also discussed the pressures which forced the government to negotiate with the advocates for change.1 Two of the more challenging studies evaluate the central role of culture in the survival of Kamuzu Banda The author is a professor in history at North Carolina State University.
