"The death of the Italian Jesuit Matteo Ricci in China in 1610 was the occasion for demonstrations of European rituals appropriate for a Catholic priest and also of Chinese rituals appropriate to the country hosting the Jesuit community. Rather than burying Ricci immediately in a plain coffin near the church, according to their European practice, the Jesuits followed Chinese custom and kept Ricci's body for nearly a year in an air-tight Chinese-style coffin and asked the emperor for burial ground outside the city walls. Moreover, at Ricci's funeral itself, on their own initiative the Chinese performed their funerary rituals, thus starting a long and complex cultural dialogue in which they took the lead during the next century.
The Interweaving of Rituals explores the role of ritual - specifically rites related to death and funerals - in cross-cultural exchange, demonstrating a gradual interweaving of Chinese and European ritual practices at all levels of interaction in seventeenth-century China. This includes the interplay of traditional and new rituals by a Christian community of commoners, the grafting of Christian funerals onto established Chinese practices, and the sponsorship of funeral processions for Jesuit officials by the emperor. Through careful observation of the details of funerary practice, Nicolas Standaert illustrates the mechanics of two-way cultural interaction. His thoughtful analysis of the ritual exchange between two very different cultural traditions is especially relevant in today's world of global ethnic and religious tension. His insights will be of interest to a broad range of scholars, from historians to anthropologists to theologians."--Publisher.

本書所討論的主題是禮儀在文化交流中所扮演的角色,具體地說,是喪禮在17世紀中歐交流中的角色.喪禮通常被認為處於中國文化的核心位置.而本書所討論的中心問題是,在中西禮儀傳統相互碰撞之後的17世紀,葬禮發生了何種變化.--Publisher note.

Sangzang yishi 喪葬儀式.
By Anthony Li 李安當.
Revised by Li Anrui 李安瑞.
Manuscript, one juan (six folios).
Chinese bamboo paper in one volume.

The Latin inscription on the cover folio reads: “Ly Laurent. De Sepultura | christiana | in Sinis ceremoniae | 30 articuli Li S. Kung.” The verso of this folio gives a note in Portuguese in the hand of Francesco Saverio Filippucci (Philippucci): “Este papel foy tirado, do outro, que mandey fazer à Ly Antonio Siam cum desta casa, e foy consertado por Ly Leontio Siam cum do S^r. B’po Basilitano, e o S^r. B’po o queria aprovar e assinar. O R. P. Fr. Agostinho de S. Pascual embargou esto, por lhe querer acrecentar húa obligação de protestação no N. undecimo. | 16 Mayo de 1685. | Fran^co Xavier Filippucci.” (This paper is drawn from the other one which I had composed by Antonio Ly Sciam cum [xianggong] of this house. It was revised by Leontius Ly Sciam cum [xianggong] of His Lordship the Bishop of Basilitano [the Chinese Dominican, Luo Wenzao 羅文藻], who wished to approve and sign it. The Reverend Friar Agostinho de S. Pascual retained it, because he wished to add a solemn declaration of protest to number eleven. |16 May 1685, Francesco Saverio Filippucci).

Manuscript, one juan (six folios).
Chinese bamboo paper in one volume.

The cover bears the title written in ink and a Latin inscription: “M.S. De sepultura | Exemplar identicum | ut superstitiones vitentur.” Inside the cover there is a note in Portuguese in the hand of Filippucci: “Este papel consertado por Ly Leontio Sciam cum do B’po Basilitano, tem húa addição no N. 11 acerca da protestação nos ofertos a os def^os e sem eu saber disto, foi assinado do S^r B’po e os P R Fr. Jo. Fran^co de Leonessa, e Fr. Agostinho de S. Pascual; eu reclamey logo à isto, e assy de comun consentim^to se tirou o meu nome no principio do papel, e no fim do mesmo o assinado, e sello do S^r. B’po, e os assinados dos dd^os P.P., para que não valhão nada os dd^os assinados. En 15 Mayo de 1685 | Fran^co Xavier Filippucci.” (This paper, revised by Ly Leontius, xianggong of the house of His Lordship the Bishop of Basilitano, has an addition to number 11 dealing with the solemn declaration of protest on offerings to the dead and, without my knowledge, it was signed by His Lordship the Bishop and by the Reverend Fathers Friar Jo. Francisco de Leonessa and Friar Agostinho de S. Pascual. I disclaimed this, and with the consent of all, my name was withdrawn from the head of the paper and likewise my signature from the bottom of the same together with the seal of His Lordship the Bishop and the signatures of the aforesaid fathers so as to invalidate the foregoing signatures. 15 May 1685 | Francisco Xavier Filippucci).

The coffin [of the deceased] is placed in the middle of the family hall. In front of the coffin a table is set with incense and other things and they are arranged according to their greater or smaller number. The [chapter] Tan’gong 檀弓 in the Liji 禮記 puts it well: for the newly deceased, dry, minced, and hashed meat is offered together with a libation of wine [as a sign of respect for the deceased]. However, one never expects the deceased to partake of what is offered. But this does not prevent the son of the deceased from expressing his sentiments, and, in this case he should kneel down, offer incense and a libation of wine. Then, having wept in mourning together with members of the family, he kneels down and kowtows before the relatives and friends in expression of gratitude.
