A tale of dynastic change in China : the Ming-Qing transition through Athanasius Kircher SJ’s China illustrata (1667) / Yuval Givon.
Extract from Archivum Historicum Societatis Iesu vol. lxxxviii, fasc. 175 (2019-I)
Includes bibliographical references (p. 92-100) and glossary.

Summary:
The Jesuit polymath Athanasius Kircher SJ is among the prominent writers of seventeenth-century Europe, and his China illustrata (1667) was one of the most celebrated and influential works on China of the period. The present essay examines the contexts and sources for Kircher’s description of the fall of the Ming dynasty and the conquest of China by the foreign Qing dynasty, a monumental event of global significance which attracted the attention of European scholarly circles and foreign powers alike. Strangely, while Kircher’s network of social contacts provided him access to the best sources available on the matter, including eye witnesses, as this essay outlines, his presentation of the events in China is odd, inaccurate, and, at times, misleading.

However, a closer examination of Kircher’s sources — especially the first-hand accounts of events from fellow-Jesuits visiting Rome — reveals tensions, disagreements, and conflicting narratives that existed within the Jesuit China mission during the transition period and might have influenced the author. Kircher’s intellectual enterprise was always intertwined with his religious piety and promotion of the Society of Jesus. Thus, this essay proposes that his ‘mistakes’ can be seen as an attempt to reconcile contradictory voices among the Jesuit missionaries and to offer a unified narrative to European readers, reshaped to fit the author’s devout vision of history as well as the religio-political needs of the Society of Jesus and its China mission.

The Manchu way : the eight banners and ethnic identity in late imperial China / Mark C. Elliott.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 511-550) and index.

"In 1644, the Manchus, a relatively unknown people inhabiting China's northeastern frontier, overthrew the Ming, Asia's mightiest rulers, and established the Qing dynasty, which endured to 1912. From this event arises one of Chinese history's great conundrums: How did a barely literate alien people manage to remain in power for nearly 300 years over a highly cultured population that was vastly superior in number? Drawing on recent critical notions of ethnicity, the author explores the evolution of the 'Eight Banners', a unique Manchu system of social and military organization that was instrumental in the conquest of the Ming. Their power derived not only from the acceptance of orthodox Chinese notions of legitimacy, but also, the author suggests, from Manchu 'ethnic sovereignty', which depended on the sustained coherence of the conquest group." --Publisher description.
