Tianzhu shengjiao shengren xingshi 天主聖教聖人行實 / [Gao Yizhi shu 高一志述]

“Books on the lives of saints and sages played an important role in the Catholic catechetical method. These works abound in exempla (models) of Christian life, told to encourage and confirm people in their vocations. Similar works were introduced in China. Vagnone’s (Tianzhu shengjiao) Shengren xingshi (天主聖教)聖人行實 (1629) is a collection of the lives of seventy-two saints divided into seven categories: apostles, teachers of the Church, martyrs, confessors, religious, virgins, and women....” Cf. Standaert, Handbook of Christianity in China, v.1, p. 618.

Tianzhu shengjiao shengren xingshi 天主聖教聖人行實
By Gao Yizhi 高一志 (Alfonso Vagnone).
Seven juan. Chinese bamboo paper in seven volumes. Published by the Chaoxingtang 超性堂 of Wulin 武林 (Hangzhou, Zhejiang) in 1629 (Chongzhen 2).

The cover bears a blue label with the title of each juan.

The frontispiece of volume one bears the emblem of the Society of Jesus. The verso of this folio gives the title of the book and a general table of contents of the seven juan: 1) the Apostles, 2) popes and bishops, 3) martyrs, 4) confessors, 5) religious, 6) virgins and 7) widows. The author’s name is given at the end of this folio. Down below, printed horizontally, are the date and the place of the publication.
There is a preface by Vagnone (five folios), dated 1629, at the end of which there are two seals (one square and the other round) of the Society of Jesus. Then follows the table of contents. The censors of the book were Yang Manuo 陽瑪諾 (Manuel Dias Jr.), Guo Jujing 郭居靜 (Lazzaro Cattaneo) and Fei Lede 費樂德 (Rui de Figueiredo).
There are nine columns in each half folio with twenty characters in the first column of each paragraph and nineteen in the rest of the paragraph. The middle of each folio bears the title of the book, the title of the juan, the number of the folio and the name of the saint. At the end of each juan there is the following inscription: 武林天主教超性堂新刻 (New engraving by the Catholic Church Chaoxingtang of Wulin).
According to Pfister (p. 92) the book was written when Vagnone was in exile in Macao and published in Jiangzhou 絳州. From what we have seen it is clear that the book was published in Wulin (Hangzhou).

Tianzhu zhengjiao yuezheng 天主正教約徵.
By Li Leisi 利類思 (Lodovico Buglio).
One juan. Chinese bamboo paper in one volume. No date or place of publication.

The cover bears the title and a Latin inscription: “Compendiosa demons | tratio christianae | Religionis. Auct. P. Al. Buglio, S.J.”

This is a simple catechism, very similar to the other two books by the same author, namely the Shengjiao jianyao 聖教簡要 (Jap-Sin I, 87) and the Zhujiao yaoji 主教要紀 (Jap-Sin I, 88). The author concludes his booklet with the following remark: “Catholicism was introduced into China more than ninety years ago and there have been accusations by local government officials against the Christians. Great has been the number of men who sincerely sought the truth and by following a virtuous life obtained perfection. There have been others who at first led superstitious lives but were then converted to the truth. Again, there have been those who had been avaricious, lascivious, proud and lazy, but completely transformed their manner of living as soon as they had been Christians and became men of great virtue. All these are good proofs, and the facts are seen and heard by all. Nevertheless, there are ignorant people, who, though they became Christians, because of lack of understanding attained what appears superficial. Furthermore, they vacillated and failed to persevere to the end. For this one cannot blame the Catholic Church, rather, these people were not whole-hearted in giving up their old vices in order to embrace the truth. This is just what Confucius said, that he admitted people’s approach to him without committing himself to what they might do, when they had gone away.”
According to Pfister (p. 241, no. 10) both this book and the Xifang yaoji 西方要紀 (Jap-Sin II, 158) were presented to the Kangxi emperor, and they must have been published around 1669 in Beijing.
