The Response To Buddhism In Jesuit's Book In Ming And Qing Dynasty

It is not the first or the last but the third time of the missionaries' coming into China during the turning of the Ming and Qing dynasties was revived because of the magnanimous attitude to communications for both sides at that period of time.Jesuit adopted the policy which called "culture adoption" to promote the missionary activities. That is: learning Chinese characters, speaking Chinese, reading Chinese works, cooperating with Chinese scholars to interpreting Western books and even writing Chinese words for publishing. The Chinese Christians were also very active to write prefaces for those books and tried their utmost to spread the doctrines. Besides, due to the matured development of printing as well as the ethos of collection for books, there are thousands of precious materials which witnessed the magnificent cultural encounter left for the descendents.Nowadays the academia pays much more attention on the reactions to the reflections from the western culture to the Chinese culture than the value of Jesuit's Book in Ming and Qing Dynasty lies in missionary activities and protective actions. These reactions are manifold which makes the dialogues between Jesuit and Buddhism become of great interests.On basis of the above, from the viewpoint of philology, the author my humble self have the great intention of the observation on the attitude which Jesuits haveswitched a lot to their opponents──Buddhists as well as the important apocalypseabout which the debate brought to us through the summary and study for the Chinese version of Jesuit's Book.
