Ite missa est : ritual interactions around mass in Chinese society (1583-1720) / by Yang Hongfan.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

"This study is the first book that explores how the Catholic Mass was introduced and propagated in late Imperial China. Its dynamic exploration reveals the tension between localized and global forms of Catholic rituals, especially the tension faced by missionaries and Chinese Catholics, who were caught up between the Chinese tradition and the Catholic one. Drawing on rich primary sources, some of which are rarely noticed in the field, this book unfolds the intriguing interactions between the Mass and various cultural expressions of Chinese society, including traditional religion, architecture, art, literature, government, and theology"-- Provided by publisher.

Introduction to Ritual Interactions around Mass -- Object of Worship: Grand Ritual of Sacrifice to the Lord of Heaven -- Intention of Worship: Mass for Salvation of the Souls of the Deceased -- Performer of Worship: Indigenous Clergy along with Indigenous Liturgy -- Place of Worship: Ritual Space and Ritual Time of Mass -- On-Going Interactions.

"...Latin-Chinese list of the names of 227 saints found in the ecclesiastical calendar of Lodovico Buglio’s Misa jingdian 彌撒經典 (1670), a partial translation of Missiale Romanum."

"Lodovico Buglio 利類思 (1606-1682) translated substantial parts of the liturgical manuals, in view of the formation of a Chinese clergy and in the expectation that Rome would grant new permission for an administration of the sacraments in Chinese. (He) started with the translation of the Missal, Misa jingdian 彌撒經典, published with a frontispiece in Latin: MISSALE ROMANUM, Auctoritate Pauli V, Pont. M., sinicè Redditum a Patre Ludovico Buglio, Societatis Iesu. Pekim, in Collegio Ejusdem Societatis, Anno M.DC.LXX....

In 1685, Philippe Couplet donated a copy of Misa jingdian to the Pope, but permission to celebrate the liturgy in Chinese did not follow. As a result, these manuals were hardly used after their publication..." --Cf. Standaert, Handbook of Christianity in China, vol. 1, p. 248, 627.

"Catechisms, but also prayer books, sometimes contain the text of the formal interrogation of the catechumen which took place just before the sacrament was administered, apparently to be used by catechists who (like everyone) were allowed and obliged to baptise people in articulo mortis. For instance, Jacques Motel 穆迪我, S.J., gives in his Shengxi guiyi 聖洗規儀 (1689) instructions of how to administer baptism.”--Cf. Standaert, Handbook of Christianity in China, v.1, p. 624.
