Sommario/riassunto |
|
<span><span>The culmination of Mungello's 40 years of study on Sino-Western history, this book provides a compelling and nuanced history of Catholicism in modern China. In this important work, Mungello corrects a major misreading of Chinese history by arguing that the growth of an indigenous church in the 20th century transformed the negative aspects of the "invasion" into a positive Chinese religious force. </span></span> |
