Description

Explore the complex history of global expansion through this scholarly study of the Society of Jesus. As the rulers of overseas empires sought to evangelize new subjects in the New World, two distinct missions emerged in China and Peru. This book examines how these missions evolved within the early modern world and the different ways Christianity expanded during this period of universalism. Readers will gain insight into the unique cultural encounters of the era. In China, the text explores the experiences of Matteo Ricci and his observations of the Ming Emperor and the influence of scholar-officials. By comparing the missions in China and Peru, this work provides a detailed look at the expectations and appraisals of expansionism during the late 16th and early 17th centuries. It is an essential resource for those studying the history of Asia, the spread of religion, and the early modern era.
