Description

Explore the life of Candida Xu (1607-1680), a significant figure in seventeenth-century Chinese history. As the granddaughter of the statesman Xu Guangqi, Candida Xu stands as a foremost Chinese Christian woman of her era. This scholarly biography provides a deep look into her experiences as a daughter and wife during a transformative period. The narrative is built upon a foundation of primary historical documents, including the biography written by her confessor, Philippe Couplet, S.J., and writings from her eldest son. By examining the Xu family history alongside European missionary records and Chinese language sources, this work offers a detailed account of her legacy. It is an essential read for those interested in social and urban history, religious studies, and the intersection of Chinese and European cultures in the seventeenth century.
