This collection in five volumes tries to realize the desideratum of
a comprehensive interdisciplinary work on the manifold faces and
images of Jesus in China, which unites the Sinological,
mission-historical, theological, art-historical, and other aspects.
The first three volumes (vols. L/1-3) contain articles and texts
which discuss the faces and images of Jesus Christ from the Tang
dynasty to the present time. In a separate volume (vol. L/4)
follows an annotated bibliography of the Western and Chinese
writings on Jesus Christ in China and a general index with
glossary. The iconography, i.e., the attempts of the Western
missionaries and the Chinese to portray Jesus in an artistic way,
will be presented in the fifth volume of this collection (vol.
L/5). "This unique ongoing project continues to open a new, vital
lens to learn more about China in its intellectual and cultural
dimensions." John Witek in Journal of Asian Studies
