Dr. Steven Paas
is the rediscoverer of Rebmann's dictionary of the Kiniassa language
which is
nowadays known as Chichewa/Chinyanja and spoken by at least
15 m people, e.g. in Malawi. Dr. Paas is author of
the latest

visited the archives in
Birmingham/England and Basle/Switzerland to expand and complete his
knowledge about Johannes Rebmann.
- In his lecture on June 1, 2011, Dr.
Paas presented his reasearch results on "Johannes Rebmann in spiritual
and linguistic perspectives".
There were lots of visitors on June 1, 2011. Besides
