As the first volume of a three-volume set on the indigenization of
Christianity in modern China, this book focuses on the presence of
Christianity during the late Qing dynasty and the early twentieth
century, discussing the early waves of Christian influence key
watersheds in its history. Over the course of its growth in modern
China, Christianity has faced twists and turns in its embedding in
Chinese society and indigenous culture. This three-volume book
delineates the genesis and trajectory of Christianity's
indigenization in China over the course of the nineteenth and
twentieth centuries, highlighting the actions of Chinese Christians
and the relationship between the development of Christianity and
modern Chinese history. In this volume, the author discusses early
missionary works from both foreign missionaries and local churches,
both of which were influential in rendering Christianity more
present and influential in China and which paved the way for
further indigenization. The book then expounds on the thoughts and
practices of indigenizing Christianity prompted by historical
events in the early twentieth century, including the independent
movement of the Chinese Christian Church and religious reforms that
were undertaken to reach greater accommodation with Chinese
society. The book will appeal to scholars and students interested
in the history of Christianity in China and modern Chinese history.
