Yesuhui Luoma dang'anguan Ming-Qing Tianzhujiao wenxian 耶穌會羅馬檔案館明清天主教文獻 / edited by Nicolas Standaert [鐘鳴旦] [and] Adrian Dudink [杜鼎克].
At head of title: Yesuhui Luoma dang'anguan 耶穌會羅馬檔案館.
In Chinese, with foreword and list of titles also in English.
"This collection contains a selection of hitherto unpublished texts that belong to Japonica-Sinica section (Jap.Sin. I-IV) of the Roman Archives of the Society of Jesus."

Introduction
"The entire [JapSin] section contains ca. 580 titles including duplicates, reprints, and other editions. Most of these titles (ca. 520) are in Chinese. Except for some twenty titles, all date back to the late Ming or early Qing. The first books were already sent to Rome in the early 17th century and gradually the library expanded. Albert Chan, S.J., has compiled a catalogue with an often extensive description of all the texts: Chinese Books and Documents in the Jesuit Archives in Rome: a Descriptive Catalogue (Japonica-Sinica I-IV), New York, M. E. Sharpe, 2002. A list of all the texts is also included in Ad Dudink's article "The Japonica-Sinica Collections I-IV in the Roman Archives of the Society of Jesus: an Overview" in Monumenta Serica (2002), which analyzes the chronological layers of these collections and introduces the texts that are unique or rather rare.

The present publication reproduces some 100 texts from these four collections. In selecting these texts the editors adopted the following criteria...texts written before ca. 1820...texts not reprinted in any modern collection....unique or rare texts. They include catechetical texts by missionaries, Christian texts by converts, and rules for sodalities. Vols. 9-11 reproduce Jap.Sin. I (38/42), 39-42 (except 40/1), a unique set of some thirty manuscript documents written by Chinese converts concerning aspects of the Chinese Rites during the last two decades of the 17th century. Other texts are not unique but often difficult to access, as in Kouduo richao (vol. 7) ...

The first three volumes cover mainly catechetical writings and some texts that introduce methods of prayer amd meditation. They include some of the earliest introductions of the Christian doctrine, such as Michele Ruggieri's original version (1584) of Tianzhu shilu (no.1), Alfonso Vagnone's explanation of Doctrina Christiana or Tianzhu jiaoyao (1615)(no.3), or the illustrated guide to the prayer of the Rosary by Joao da Rocha (Song nianzhu guicheng)(no.6). Vols. 3-4 contain two important writings by Giulio Aleni on the Life of Christ (nos.14, 15). Vol. 5 is organized around a broad category of Christian ritual, including a perpetual liturgical calendar by Philippe Couplet (no. 19) and explanations of the funeral ritual by different authors. Philosophy and science in the renaissance sense of the word are included in the 6th vol.; introductions to Aristotelian psychology (no. 26), the art of drawing (no.27), or the study of sleep and dreams (nos. 28, 29). Vol. 7 is entirely covered by Kouduo richao, an extensive selected record of the missionaries' preaching in Fujian during a period of ten years (1630-1640). Vols. 8-11 are texts by Chinese Christians. Vol. 8-9 include various writings by them on explicitly Christian religious themes. The role of Chinese converts in the Chinese Rites controversy having so far been largely underestimated, vol. 10-11 present texts in which they express themselves on this topic. These may challenge the vision of the controversy as being by and large a European problem. Appended to vol. 11 is Buglio's translation of parts of the Rituale Romanum. The 12th and final volume contains texts on various topics such as natural philosophy, medicine, the life of the saints, biographies of famous missionaries in China, and the rules of sodalities."--Preface.

"This volume is a collection of almost 4,000 church-related works from the rare documents repository of the Shanghai Municipal Archives. These documents encompass the era from 1836-1963, with contents that touch upon the Roman Catholic Church, the Chinese Protestant Church, the China Branch of the Seventh Day Adventists, Chinese Christian youth associations and 32 other denominations and church-related organizations. Shanghai has historically been the city where the majority of Christian groups were established, and in the 70 year span beginning in 1879 until the founding of New China, the printing presses of Shanghai-area Catholic and Protestant organizations published a great variety of periodical literature, both locally and countrywide. Christian publishing organizations of a national character were likewise published in Shanghai, leaving as their legacy a large quantity of religious publications and printed materials."

"Among the source documents included in this compilation are those of various Christian groups from different time periods, who published periodicals in great variety, with similarly varied contents. The archives are not without rare books and unique volumes as well, including the inaugural editions of several rare periodicals. These sources provide a minute, highly detailed historical reflection of each church group’s organizational and structural development, including historical outlines, annual reports, yearbooks, records of important events, and centenary commemorative editions. In addition to these items, there are publications which reflect the attitudes of the religious community both prior to and the Sino-Japanese war and its aftermath, which are sources deserving of study. The contents of this volume total 3,785 entries, cataloged and compiled according to international bibliographic standards, and include detailed annotation and critical apparatus for Chinese and Western sources listed by title, author, publishing organization, publication date and other information. With an appended six-category index, this catalog will profitably assist the study of the history of religion, religious education, and Chinese-Western cultural history. This volume is a joint publication of the Shanghai Municipal Archives and the Ricci Institute for Chinese-Western Cultural History of the University of San Francisco."
