Abstract
This special issue of the Journal of Jesuit Studies explores the “new” Jesuit mission to China, established in the 1840s. This, following the Society’s suppression in Europe and the broader banishment of Christianity in China. The introduction provides a snapshot of the critical themes threading through the essays. These include the dynamic interplay between the “old” and “new” Jesuit missions to China, featuring intriguing discussions on cultural “accommodation” and indigenization. The unique role of Shanghai as a vital Jesuit hub in East Asia is examined, underscoring its strategic importance. Furthermore, the issue delves into the transference and circulation of ideologies, texts, and visual media within East Asia, highlighting the region’s interconnectedness. The collection presents a comprehensive view of the Jesuits’ complex, transformative journey in the East.
期刊介绍：
This is a full Open Access journal. All articles are available for free from the moment of publication and authors do not pay an article publication charge. The Journal of Jesuit Studies (JJS) is a peer-reviewed quarterly journal dedicated to the study of Jesuit history from the sixteenth to the twenty-first century. It welcomes articles on all aspects of the Jesuit past and present including, but not limited to, the Jesuit role in the arts and sciences, theology, philosophy, mission, literature, and interreligious/inter-cultural encounters. In its themed issues the JJS highlights studies with a given topical, chronological or geographical focus. In addition there are two open-topic issues per year. The journal publishes a significant number of book reviews as well. One of the key tasks of the JJS is to relate episodes in Jesuit history, particularly those which have suffered from scholarly neglect, to broader trends in global history over the past five centuries. The journal also aims to bring the highest quality non-Anglophone scholarship to an English-speaking audience by means of translated original articles.
