| Zusammenfassung: | Though Jesuits assumed a variety of roles as missionaries in late imperial China, their most memorable guise was that of scientific expert, whose maps, clocks, astrolabes, and armillaries reportedly astonished the Chinese. But the icon of the missionary-scientist is itself a complex myth. Masterfully correcting the standard story of China Jesuits as simple conduits for Western science, Florence C. Hsia shows how these missionary-scientists remade themselves as they negotiated the place of the profane sciences in a religious enterprise. Sojourners in a Strange Land develops a genealogy of Jesuit conceptions of scientific life within the Chinese mission field from the sixteenth through eighteenth centuries. Analyzing the printed record of their endeavors in natural philosophy and mathematics, Hsia identifies three models of the missionary man of science by their genres of writing: mission history, travelogue, and academic collection. Drawing on the history of early modern Europe's scientific, religious, and print culture, she uses the elaboration and reception of these scientific personae to construct the first collective biography of the Jesuit missionary-scientist's many incarnations in late imperial China. --From publisher's description. |

Sojourners in a Strange Land develops a genealogy of Jesuit conceptions of scientific life within the Chinese mission field from the sixteenth through eighteenth centuries. Analyzing the printed record of their endeavors in natural philosophy and mathematics, Hsia identifies three models of the missionary man of science by their genres of writing: mission history, travelogue, and academic collection. Drawing on the history of early modern Europe's scientific, religious, and print culture, she uses the elaboration and reception of these scientific personae to construct the first collective biography of the Jesuit missionary-scientist's many incarnations in late imperial China. --From publisher's description.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="588" ind1="0" ind2=" "><subfield code="a">Print version record.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="610" ind1="2" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Jesuits</subfield><subfield code="x">Missions</subfield><subfield code="z">China</subfield><subfield code="x">History.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="600" ind1="1" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Ricci, Matteo,</subfield><subfield code="d">1552-1610.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="610" ind1="2" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Jesuits</subfield><subfield code="z">China</subfield><subfield code="x">History</subfield><subfield code="y">16th century.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="610" ind1="2" ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Jesuits</subfield><subfield code="z">China</subfield><subfield code="x">History</subfield><subfield code="y">17th century.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="600" ind1="1" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Ricci, Matteo,</subfield><subfield code="d">1552-1610</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJqvTrBH373xGkffmR7GpP</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="610" ind1="2" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Jesuits</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="610" ind1="2" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Jesuiten</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="610" ind1="2" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Jesuiten.</subfield><subfield code="2">idszbz</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="610" ind1="2" ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Jesuiter</subfield><subfield code="x">mission</subfield><subfield code="z">Kina.</subfield><subfield code="2">sao</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Jesuit scientists</subfield><subfield code="z">China.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="0"><subfield code="a">Science</subfield><subfield code="z">China</subfield><subfield code="x">History.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Scientifiques jésuites</subfield><subfield code="z">Chine.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="6"><subfield code="a">Sciences</subfield><subfield code="z">Chine</subfield><subfield code="x">Histoire.</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">RELIGION</subfield><subfield code="x">Christian Ministry</subfield><subfield code="x">Missions.</subfield><subfield code="2">bisacsh</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Jesuit scientists</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Missions</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Science</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">China</subfield><subfield code="2">fast</subfield><subfield code="1">https://id.oclc.org/worldcat/entity/E39PBJcrd4RjtCBk4wfMhTwwG3</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Wissenschaft</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">China</subfield><subfield code="2">gnd</subfield><subfield code="0">http://d-nb.info/gnd/4009937-4</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Mission.</subfield><subfield code="2">idszbz</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Naturwissenschaften.</subfield><subfield code="2">idszbz</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Technik.</subfield><subfield code="2">idszbz</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">Kulturkontakt.</subfield><subfield code="2">idszbz</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="651" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">China.</subfield><subfield code="2">idszbz</subfield></datafield><datafield tag="650" ind1=" " ind2="7"><subfield code="a">mission catholique</subfield><subfield code="x">science</subfield><subfield code="x">Jésuites</subfield><subfield code="z">Chine</subfield><subfield code="y">17e s.</subfield><subfield code="x">18e s.

Hsia. Sojourners in a strange land : Jesuits & their scientific missions in late imperial China Chicago ; London : University of Chicago Press, 2009. 1 online resource (xv, 273 pages) : illustrations text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Science and Its Conceptual Foundations S Includes bibliographical references (pages 219-260) and index. Who was that masked man? -- Writing missions -- Telling missionary lives -- Making Jesuit science travel -- Reading Jesuit voyages -- Jesuit academicians -- Observational fortunes -- Familiar letters and familiar faces. Though Jesuits assumed a variety of roles as missionaries in late imperial China, their most memorable guise was that of scientific expert, whose maps, clocks, astrolabes, and armillaries reportedly astonished the Chinese. But the icon of the missionary-scientist is itself a complex myth. Masterfully correcting the standard story of China Jesuits as simple conduits for Western science, Florence C. Hsia shows how these missionary-scientists remade themselves as they negotiated the place of the profane sciences in a religious enterprise. Sojourners in a Strange Land develops a genealogy of Jesuit conceptions of scientific life within the Chinese mission field from the sixteenth through eighteenth centuries. Analyzing the printed record of their endeavors in natural philosophy and mathematics, Hsia identifies three models of the missionary man of science by their genres of writing: mission history, travelogue, and academic collection. Drawing on the history of early modern Europe's scientific, religious, and print culture, she uses the elaboration and reception of these scientific personae to construct the first collective biography of the Jesuit missionary-scientist's many incarnations in late imperial China. --From publisher's description.
