Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book shares the extraordinary life of Father Matteo Ripa, an Italian priest who journeyed from Naples to the court of the Kangxi Emperor in Beijing in the early 18th century. Along the way, he faced imprisonment, shipwreck, deadly storms, and more as he crossed continents and oceans. Despite these perils, Ripa's faith never wavered, and his determination to spread the word of God drove him forward. His firsthand account of these hardships gives readers a glimpse into the power of unwavering belief, intermingled with fascinating insights into the political and cultural landscapes of Europe and Asia during this era. Through Ripa's eyes, we witness the stark contrasts between East and West, the complexities of cultural exchange, and the ways in which faith can serve as a source of strength in the face of adversity.
