"Following the prohibition of missionary activity after 1724, China's Christians were effectively cut off from all foreign theological guidance. The ensuing isolation forced China's Christian communities to become self-reliant in perpetuating the basic principles of their faith. Left to their own devices, the missionary seed developed into a panoply of indigenous traditions, with Christian ancestry as the common denominator. Christianity thus underwent the same process of inculturation as previous religious traditions in China, such as Buddhism and Judaism. As the guardian of orthodox morality, the prosecuting state sought to exercise all-pervading control over popular thoughts and social functions. This study therefore presents the campaigns against Christians during this period as part and parcel of the campaign against 'heresy' and 'heretical' movements in general." -- Publisher description.

God, Jesus, and the Ancestors : an ethnography of the Ancestors’ Rites in the Taiwanese Catholic Church / Marco Lazzarotti.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 121-127)
Cover device: Zuxian 祖先

Local access dig.pdf. [Lazzorotti-Ancestors.pdf]

In this book the author describes the Ancestors Ceremonies as practiced in the Taiwanese Catholic Church. The author’s point is to demonstrate how the Chinese symbolic universe made a deep translation of the “new” symbolic system represented by the Catholic doctrine. At the same time the effort of the Catholic Church in order to adapt the Gospel message to the local situation built up a particular phenomenon that the author defined as cultural dialogue. It is this dialogic relationship the process that the author defines as Culture.--back cover.

Jesuit mission and submission : Qing rulership and the fate of Christianity in China, 1644-1735 / by Litian Swen.
Includes bibliographical references and index.

Jesuit Mission and Submission' explains how the Jesuits entered the Manchu world after the Manchus conquered Beijing in 1644. Supported by Qing court archives, the book discovers the Jesuits? Manchu-style master-slave relationship with the Kangxi emperor. Against the backdrop of this relationship, the book reconstructs the back and forth negotiations between Kangxi and the Holy See regarding Chinese Rites Controversy (1705-1721), and shows that the Jesuits, although a group of foreign priests, had close access to Kangxi and were a trusted part of the Imperial circle. This book also redefines the rise and fall of the Christian mission in the early Qing court through key events, such as the Calendar Case and Yongzheng's prohibition of Christianity.

La missione del primo Legato pontificio Maillard de Tournon : all'origine delle relazioni tra Santa Sede e Cina (1622-1742) / Rui Zhang.

Includes bibliographical references (p. [209]-226 and index.

Nel 1622, con la Bolla Inscrutabili Divinae emanata da Papa Gregorio XV, la Sede Apostolica istituisce la Sacra Congregazione di Propaganda Fide per il coordinamento dell’attività missionaria e l’evangelizzazione dei popoli. Per i Pontefici di quel tempo, una delle questioni urgenti e irrisolte era legata alla lontana missione nel Celeste Impero e alla controversia sui Riti cinesi. Nel 1701, Clemente XI, appena intronizzato, decide di inviare, attraverso Propaganda Fide, un uomo di fiducia nella Città Proibita per incontrare l’Imperatore Kangxi, uno dei più rispettati e lungimiranti sovrani della storia cinese.
Il giovane Carlo Tommaso Maillard de Tournon, nominato Patriarca d’Antiochia e Visitatore Apostolico, con potestà di Legato a latere per i territori orientali delle Indie, dell’Impero della Cina e delle Isole adiacenti, inizia la sua missione con l’intento di creare una “corrispondenza” tra Roma e Pechino, di supervisionare l’attività degli stessi missionari e di sviluppare interscambi diplomatici, culturali e umani. La storia del suo mandato, ripercorsa con il puntuale riscontro di numerose fonti d’archivio, consente di ricostruire una fase significativa del primo incontro ufficiale tra Santa Sede e Cina, per molti aspetti decisivo per le successive relazioni culturali, politiche e religiose tra l’occidente cristiano e il popolo cinese.

Chinese practices related to ancestors have long been the subject of conflicting interpretations. These practices are rooted in the lived experience of practitioners, and therefore need to be considered as embodied expressions of the quest for existential meaning. For practitioners, the achievement of existential meaning requires the inclusion, implication and mediation of the ancestors. When gestures in ancestor rites are analysed from this perspective it is possible to appreciate their essence as constitutive of 'ancestor religion'. This book uses an inquisitive method that investigates the discrepancies between foreign and local explanations, and proposes another hermeneutic framework for ancestor related praxes.--OCLC note.

EUCHINA note: "...There is (of course) not a chapter on the Jesuits and China, but two chapters have ‘China’ in their title:
17) The Jesuits in Asia under the Portuguese Padroado: India, China, and Japan (sixteenth to seventeenth centuries).
20) Missionary art and architecture of the Society of Jesus between China and Brazil.

This chapter discusses Jesuit strategies in mission art and architecture in the early modern world through two eighteenth-century case studies, one in China and the other in Brazil. The first is an episode in the Jesuit artistic campaign at the Qing court in Beijing when Jesuit artists worked closely with court artists and the Chinese emperor Qianlong to create the Xiyanglou (European-style buildings) at the imperial gardens at Yuanming Yuan. The second is the Jesuits’ introduction of Chinese style decor into church interiors in colonial Brazil as a symbol of Christian victory over paganism. These two episodes will also complicate our idea of Jesuit exceptionalism since non-Christians, Franciscans, and other orders were involved in these activities, sometimes as much as the Jesuits.

On the other hand, chapter 34 (The Jesuit Rites Controversy) deals for the greatest part with China (in addition to India: Malabar rites). Other chapters dealing with China are: chapter 6 (Financing Jesuit missions) that gives special attention to female donors and the finances of Jesuit missions in China; chapter 24 (Music in global Jesuit missions, 1540-1773) contains a section “Music in the missions of China and Japan” and chapter 32 (Anti-Jesuitism in a global perspective) a section “Juan de Palafox from Mexican quarrels to Chinese rites”. In chapter 33 (The Jesuits and the Enlightenment) China plays a prominent role."--(Ad Dudink, June 2, 2019. EUCHINA e-mail listserv)

Privileges for being slaves: Christian missionaries in the early Qing court / by Litian Swen.
Thesis (Ph.D., History)—-City University of New York, 2019.
Bibliography: p.244-257.

This dissertation works to elucidate the long-term confusion over the identity of the Christian fathers in the early Qing court. The identity for which this dissertation argues is straightforward: Christian fathers were identified by the Kangxi emperor as his family slaves. The master-slave relationship has long been overlooked because it was overshadowed by an overwhelming focus on the Jesuit Adam Schall, who entered the Manchu court as a Chinese-style minister. Shifting the focus from Schall, this dissertation starts by showing two seldom mentioned Jesuits, Ludovico Buglio and Gabriel de Magalhaens, who entered into Manchu service as slaves. It was, this dissertation shows, not Schall but Buglio, Magalhaens, and the network they built through their slave status that set the foundation for future Jesuits’ successful participation in the Manchu empire. With the master-slave relationship between Kangxi and the Christian fathers established, the fourth and fifth chapters examine Kangxi’s receptions of the two papal legations as family guests instead of as foreign embassies of state.
The identity of the Christian missionaries, this dissertation shows, determined both rise and fall of the Christian mission in the Kangxi and Yongzheng’s reigns.

The Rites Controversies in the Early Modern World is a collection of fourteen articles focusing on debates concerning the nature of rites? raging in intellectual circles of Europe, Asia and America in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. The controversy started in Jesuit Asian missions where the method of accommodation, based on translation of Christianity into Asian cultural idioms, created a distinction between civic and religious customs. Civic customs were defined as those that could be included into Christianity and permitted to the new converts. However, there was no universal consensus among the various actors in these controversies as to how to establish criteria for distinguishing civility from religion. The controversy had not been resolved, but opened the way to radical religious scepticism. Contributors are: Claudia Brosseder, Michela Catto, Gita Dharampal-Frick, Pierre Antoine Fabre, Ana Carolina Hosne, Ronnie Po-Chia Hsia, Giuseppe Marcocci, Ovidiu Olar, Sabina Pavone, István Perczel, Nicholas Standaert, Margherita Trento, Guillermo Wilde and Ines G.
