  • The Silencing of Jesuit Figurist Joseph de Prémare in Eighteenth-Century China

    par D. E. Mungello ...
    The image of a voice in the wilderness evokes an outcast who has been condemned and banished by society. That image fits the scholar-priest Joseph de Prémare who spent the last thirty-eight years of his life (1698-1736) mainly in remote areas of China. He was condemned to silence by not only his religious superiors, but also by intellectuals in Europe. He was silenced because his Figurist theories ... En savoir plus

    par Lars Peter Laamann ...
    Collections series Routledge Studies in the Modern History of Asia
    Following the prohibition of missionary activity after 1724, China's Christians were effectively cut off from all foreign theological guidance. The ensuing isolation forced China's Christian communities to become self-reliant in perpetuating the basic principles of their faith. Left to their own devices, the missionary seed developed into a panoply of indigenous traditions, with Christian ancestry ... En savoir plus

    The Untold History of Europe's Last Pagan Peoples

    par Francis Young ...
    The formal conversion to Christianity in 1387 of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania seemingly marked the end of Europe's last 'pagan' peoples. But the reality was different.
