"This second volume of the seminal two-volume anthology spans the 13th century CE to the very beginning of the nineteenth century with an entry dated circa 1800. It deals mainly with the transmission of Western learning to China, a translation venture that changed the epistemological horizon and even the mindset of Chinese people. Also included are texts that address translation between Chinese and the languages of China's Central Asian neighbours, such as Manchu, which was to become of crucial importance in the Qing Dynasty. Comprising 28 passages, most of which are translated into English for the first time here, the anthology is the first major source book of its kind to appear in English. It features valuable primary material, and is essential reading for postgraduate students and researchers working in the areas of translation, translation studies and Asian Studies"--Back cover.

De Christiana expeditione apud Sinas is the earliest full account of the Jesuit China Mission. Written by Nicolas Trigault 金尼閣 (1577-1628), it is an amplification (with some misreadings and omissions) of the Italian manuscript left by Matteo Ricci after his death in 1610, which was supplemented by the Jesuits Ferreira, Longobardi, and Cattaneo. It was immediately popular and translated into German, Spanish, and Italian, and was later partially translated (by Louis Gallagher) into English. A modern Chinese translation also exists.

De Christiana expeditione apud Sinas presents the history of the mission from Xavier’s time until Matteo Ricci, the experience in Japan, and much information concerning the Chinese nation, government, philosophy, and history.

Historical records of the first three reigns of the Qing dynasty, during which time the Jesuits were very active and these records so indicate (Cf. Li Tiangang 李天綱).

"Donghualu 東華錄 (Records from within the Eastern Gate)....important annalistic source (covering from 1644 to the Yongzheng period) is so called from the fact that the first compiler, Jiang Liangqi, worked as an official in the Guoshiguan 國史館 (Historiography Institute), which after 1765 was situated inside the Donghua gate of the Forbidden City (the imperial archives, Huangshicheng....were just across the road from it)...."
