This study is the first book that explores how the Catholic Mass
was introduced and propagated in late Imperial China. Its dynamic
exploration reveals the tension between localized and global forms
of Catholic rituals, especially the tension faced by missionaries
and Chinese Catholics, who were caught up between the Chinese
tradition and the Catholic one. Drawing on rich primary sources,
some of which are rarely noticed in the field, this book unfolds
the intriguing interactions between the Mass and various cultural
expressions of Chinese society, including traditional religion,
architecture, art, literature, government, and theology.
