Description
Summary:The response to Christopher Smith's paper focuses on the Serampore Trio from the standpoint of a team and a time. The team of Carey, Marshman, and Ward cannot be described as Carey plus two. The synergism of the team produced a force begging for a form large enough to channel the productivity of the team. The time, or era, provided the precedents and the context in which such a phenomenon could occur: a “kairos” moment at a “chronos” intersection. If models are but the shadows cast by the means, it is increasingly important to understand consequences for the future from any means adopted.
