Bianxue yidu 辯學遺牘 / Li Madou yuanzhu 利瑪竇原著 .... Zheng Ande bianji 鄭安德編輯.
[Attributed to Matteo Ricci (Cf. Handbook of Christianity in China, vol. 1, p.617)]
“本書根據1919年 重刊本辯學遺牘 編輯整理”--P. 1 (2nd group)

“ .... Several catechetical and theological writings take an apologetic stand: they explain Christian doctrines while exposing the difference from Confucianism, Buddhism, or Taoism. Some works were solely devoted to this topic such as the Bianxue yidu 辯學遺牘, attributed to Ricci and postumously published (ca. 1623), which refuted the criticism expressed by the lay Buddhist Yu Chunxi 虞淳熙 (js. 1583, d. 1621) and the monk Zhuhong 祩宏 (1535-1615).--Cf. N. Standaert, Handbook of Christianity in China, v.1, p. 616-617.

Ricci's first published work in Chinese, the Jiaoyou lun (1595), like the Ershiwu yan 二十五言 (1605), was written for general non-Christian Chinese readership. Both works follow the late Ming mission practice of introducing the Chinese to "ancient saints and sages" of the West through passages and aphorisms translated or paraphrased from classical European sources, thus presenting a format easily recognizable to literate Chinese as similar to the Confucian tradition. Jiaoyou lun, or De Amicitia, is based on Andreas Eborensis (1478-1573) Sententiae et Exempla, a collection of statements taken from Cicero, Seneca, and other classics of antiquity. Martini based his much later work on friendship, the Qiuyou pian 求友篇 (c. 1661), on Ricci’s model. Cf. Standaert, Handbook of Christianity in China, vol. 1, p. 604-605.

Tianzhu shiyi 天主實義 / Li Madou yuanzhu 利瑪竇原著 .... 鄭安德編輯.
“本書根據杭州燕貽堂較梓本編輯整理, 由李之藻1607年重刻序"--P. 1 (2nd group)

The Tianzhu shiyi of 1603 and its many later editions, reprints, and translations was by far the most influential Catholic catechism in China, and its influence lasted well beyond the 17th century. Like the classics of Confucianism, it is written in the form of a dialogue, in this case between a Chinese and a Western scholar. Based on natural theology, it sought to explain fundamental Christian ideas through argumentation and applied reason. Ricci uses rational arguments to prove the existence of God, preparing the background until the final chapter where he explains the incarnation of God in Jesus Christ and his ascension without including the passion and crucifixion. Quoting the Chinese Classics to demonstrate the ancient Chinese had natural knowledge of God, Ricci’s approach was in accord with the Thomistic view that reason had its own value, and resembled Valignano’s methods in the Catechismus Christianae Fidei (1586).

“ ... after the Edict of Toleration (1692) ... the need for a dialogue had diminished and catechetical writings had become to a greater extent mere expositions of European catechists, while refutation of Chinese teachings, especially of Buddhism and Taoism ... has become sharper. In this regard, the title and the contents of a work published in 1718 are revealing: ‘The true way proved by itself’ (Zhendao zizheng 真道自證), in which the author ... only takes recourse to reason (natural religion) and the Bible (revealed religion); he does not adduce the Chinese Classics and Confucianism for support and is silent on Buddhism and Taoism”--Cf.
