Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the Jesuit Order's missionary work in China, tracing its triumphs and tribulations from the sixteenth century to the eighteenth. The Jesuits created a niche for themselves in China by teaching Christianity in the context of local traditions and customs but sparked heated debate on whether their approach compromised core Christian principles. The controversy escalated in the 18th century when the Pope sent a legate to China to bring uniformity in teachings among various Catholic groups in the region. This book sheds light on the competing methodologies used by the Jesuits and their opponents, who appealed to the Vatican to settle differences. The author meticulously explores the underlying tensions between them, providing valuable insights into the complexities of missionary work, the role of the Vatican, and the power dynamics at play.
