Supported by Qing court archives, the book discovers the Jesuits' Manchu-style master-slave relationship with the Kangxi emperor. Against the backdrop of this relationship, the book reconstructs the back and forth negotiations between Kangxi and the Holy See regarding Chinese Rites Controversy (1705-1721), and shows that the Jesuits, although a group of foreign priests, had close access to Kangxi and were a trusted part of the Imperial circle. This book also redefines the rise and fall of the Christian mission in the early Qing court through key events, such as the Calendar Case and Yongzheng's prohibition of Christianity.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Litian Swen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004447008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004447004\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/11\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover","brand":"Litian Swen","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43943621624063,"sku":"9789004447004","price":50.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_fc1b8d99-8efa-4c7b-9ca1-2cbc9bf82291.jpg?v=1681499136","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/jesuit-mission-and-submission-litian-swen-9789004447004","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
