H. U. Weitbrecht : ウィキペディア英語版 | H. U. Weitbrecht Herbert Udny Weitbrecht (Stanton) was born to a German missionary in London, England in January 1851. His father John James Weitbrecht also spent time in India as a missionary.〔(''Memoir of the Rev. John James Weitbrecht'' )〕 Even though he is known by his initials his given name was Herbert. His wife's last name was Stanton; this could be the reason that he has added it to his own name later in life, possibly to please her family. == Career == He received his Ph.D. from the University of Tübingen in 1873. A few years later at age 25 he joined the Church Missionary Society. In 1874 he was ordained as a deacon, and then as a priest the following year by the Bishop of Chester. When he offered himself for ministry in the Church Missionary Society, he was sent to India to be the Vice Principal of St. John's Divinity College in Lahore. From this time on he spent 35 years in Central Panjab (see Punjab region). In 1879 and 1880 he was the acting secretary of Punjab Corresponding Committee for CMS. Eight years later he became the examining Chaplain to the Bishop of Lahore. This is not where his appointments in Lahore stopped; he was also appointed honorary Canon of Lahore. He was also appointed the Chief Reviser of the Urdu New Testament during the 1890s when a fresh translation was being prepared.〔H. U. Weitbrecht, "The Revision of the Urdu New Testament," ''The Indian Evangelical Review: A Quarterly Journal of Missionary Thought and Effort'', 27 (Apr. 1900): 415−446.〕 In 1911 Weitbrecht resigned from the CMS and was appointed to the secretaryship of the Central Board of Study for preparation of Missionaries. Two years later as the secretary he published ''A Bibliography for Missionary Students''. While on the board he was also a member of the Candidates Committee. Weitbrecht was appointed the director of Mildmay Institutions in 1915. The next year he was appointed as James Long Lecturer on Islam. A number of his articles have also been published in the Church Missionary Intelligencer.
