Abstract

This pathbreaking volume forces a reassessment of many common assumptions about the relationship between Christianity and modern China. The overall thrust of the twenty essays is that despite the conflicts and tension that have often characterized relations between Christianity and China, for the past two centuries or more Christianity has been putting down roots within Chinese society, and it is still in the process of doing so. Thus Christianity is here interpreted not just as a Western religion that imposed itself on China, but one that was becoming a Chinese religion, as Buddhism did centuries ago. The essays are organized into four major sections: Christianity's role in Qing society, including local conflicts; ethnicity; women; and the indigenization of the Christian effort. The editor has provided section introductions to highlight the major themes in each section, as well as a general introduction.
