Local access dig.pdf [Hsia-Jesuit Forbidden City Matteo Ricci.pdf]

"A 16th century Italian Jesuit, Matteo Ricci was the founder of the Catholic Mission in China and one of the most famous missionaries of all time. A pioneer in bringing Christianity to China, Ricci spent twenty eight years in the country, in which time he crossed the cultural divides between China and the West by immersing himself in the language and culture of his hosts. Even 400 years later, he is still one of the best known westerners in China, celebrated for introducing western scientific and religious ideas to China and for explaining Chinese culture to Europe.

The first critical biography of Ricci to use all relevant sources, both Chinese and Western, A Jesuit in the Forbidden City tells the story of a remarkable life that bridged Counter-Reformation Catholic Europe and China under the Ming dynasty. Hsia follows the life of Ricci from his childhood in Macerata, through his education in Rome, to his sojourn in Portuguese India, before the start of his long journey of self-discovery and cultural encounter in the Ming realm. Along the way, we glimpse the workings of the Portuguese maritime empire in Asia, the mission of the Society of Jesus, and life in the European enclave of Macau on the Chinese coast, as well as invaluable sketches of Ricci's fellow Jesuits and portraits of the Chinese mandarins who formed networks indispensable for Ricci's success.

Examining a range of new sources, Hsia offers important new insights into Ricci's long period of trial and frustration in Guangdong province, where he first appeared in the persona of a foreign Buddhist monk, before the crucial move to Nanchang in 1595 that led to his sustained intellectual conversation with a leading Confucian scholar and subsequent synthesis of Christianity and Confucianism in propagating the Gospels in China. With his expertise in cartography, mathematics, and astronomy, Ricci quickly won recognition, especially after he had settled in Nanjing in 1598, the southern capital of the Ming dynasty. As his reputation and friendships grew, Ricci launched into a sharp polemic against Buddhism, while his career found its crowning achievement in the imperial capital of Beijing, leaving behind a life, work, and legacy that is still very much alive today."--Publisher note.

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.

Descripción de China / Matteo Ricci ; Edición de Giuseppe Marino.

Título original: Descrizione della Cina [Della entrata della Comapagnia di Giesù e Christianità nelle Cina] (libro I)
Includes bibligraphical references (p. 69-73) and index.

La «Descripción de China» de Matteo Ricci es considerada una de las obras más importantes acerca de la civilización, filosofía, historia, costumbres y geografía de China, tanto por el rigor de sus fuentes literarias como por la riqueza y autoridad de las orales, en especial los literatos chinos con los que el jesuita italiano tuvo trato. Primero de los cinco libros de su prolífica Historia de la introducción del cristianismo en China (también conocida como Commentarj della Cina), la Descripción es un trabajo etnográfico que cabe hoy enmarcar en el ámbito de las disciplinas que estudian los puentes culturales entre Europa y Asia, particularmente con el Lejano Oriente y China. Ricci consigue presentar a los lectores occidentales una China comprensible, pero que representa al mismo tiempo un desafío para la cartografía europea de los saberes.—Publisher description.

簡介：「如何傳福音」這問題與傳教士和教會息息相關，因為傳福音的方法會根據時間、地點和文化的不同而轉變，並且對我們的適應能力構成一定的挑戰。在天主教的悠久歷史當中，眾多傳教士，通過不同方式向人們分享福音喜訊，耶穌會的利瑪竇神父就是其中之一。人們試圖從他身上，找出在自己的處境下，仍然具有意義和啟發性的東西。本期《鼎》嘗試探討，利瑪竇及其同伴的傳福音策略和態度，與今天的中國基督徒有何關係。--Publisher note.

The Jesuit missions to China and Peru, 1570-1610 : expectations and appraisals of expansionism / Ana Carolina Hosne.
Includes bibliographical references (pages [174]-187) and index.

Synopsis:
The Jesuit Missions to China and Peru were, in their different ways, astonishingly successful, with Catholicism establishing deep roots in Peru, and with the Ming emperors in China giving Jesuits a privileged position at the imperial court, from which position, later, they almost brought about the conversion of the Chinese emperor, and thereby potentially all of China, to Roman Catholic Christianity. This book explores how leading Jesuits, Ricci (1552-1610) in China and Acosta (1540-1600) in Peru, adapted Catholic teaching to fit the prevailing religious outlook and practices in the two countries in order to make Catholicism more understandable and palatable to the local population. It examines in detail Catholic theology, the Jesuit approach to mission, and the concepts which underpinned adaptation, showing in the detail of catechisms produced in each of the territories how adaptation worked out in practice. The book concludes by outlining how the relationship between Catholicism and local culture in the two countries developed., The rulers of the overseas empires summoned the Society of Jesus to evangelize their new subjects in the 'New World' which Spain and Portugal shared; this book is about how two different missions, in China and Peru, evolved in the early modern world. From a European perspective, this book is about the way Christianity expanded in the early modern period, craving universalism. In China, Matteo Ricci was so impressed by the influence that the scholar-officials were able to exert on the Ming Emperor himself that he likened them to the philosopher-kings of Plato's Republic. The Jesuits in China were in the hands of the scholar-officials, with the Emperor at the apex, who had the power to decide whether they could stay or not. Meanwhile, in Peru, the Society of Jesus was required to impose Tridentine Catholicism by Philip II, independently of Rome, a task that entailed compliance with the colonial authorities' demands. This book explores how leading Jesuits, Matteo Ricci (1552-1610) in China and José de Acosta (1540-1600) in Peru, envisioned mission projects and reflected them on the catechisms they both composed, with a remarkable power of endurance. It offers a reflection on how the Jesuits conceived and assessed these mission spaces, in which their keen political acumen and a certain taste for power unfolded, playing key roles in envisioning new doctrinal directions and reflecting them in their doctrinal texts.

EUCHINA note: annotated translation of Fonti Ricciane (1942, vols. I-II) with consultation of the Quodlibet edition (2000) of Della entrata della Compagnia di Giesù e Christianità nella Cina.

This is the first Chinese literal translation of Della entrata / Fonti Ricciane. The translation that came out in 1983 (reprinted in 1997, 2001 and 2010) of Ricci’s report is based on Gallagher’s English translation (1953) of Trigault’s Latin translation /adaptation (1615) of Ricci’s text: 利瑪竇中國札記 (Beijing: Zhonghua shuju). Another translation (利瑪竇全集, vols. 1-2) that came out in 1986 (Taibei) is based on Fonti Ricciane. However, in the course of time this 1986 translation was deemed to contain too many mistakes and at times to be more a paraphrase of the original than a translation.
(A second volume, containing translations of all Ricci's extant letters is forthcoming in 2015)--(Adrian Dudink).
