Huang's work carefully covers the whole history of the Confucian-Christian tradition, and ends up with genuinely new insights. He elaborates on the idea of transcendence in the Confucian tradition in a manner which enables an interpretation of the Christian means of salvation. His explanation of transcendence, and its connection with the means of salvation, is new and unique, offering a clue to the special understanding of salvation germane to the specifically Chinese intellecual history. Huang's book is a must for anyone interested in the Sino-Western cultural encounter. 410 0$aStudies in systematic theology (Leiden, Netherlands) ;$vv. 3. 606 $aChristianity and other religions$xConfucianism 606 $aConfucianism$xRelations$xChristianity 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aChristianity and other religions$xConfucianism. 615 0$aConfucianism$xRelations$xChristianity. 676 $a261.2/99512 700 $aHuang$b Paulos Zhanzhu$0982978 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459254903321 996 $aConfronting Confucian understandings of the Christian doctrine of salvation$92243439 997 $aUNINA
