Abstract

Adopting an accommodationist strategy with a positive attitude, the mission in China had a breakthrough when Matteo Ricci reached the Ming Court in 1601. Valentin Carvaglio’s Lettre de la Chine de l’an 1601 reports on this historical moment and testifies that the Jesuits’ intelligent, discreet, and humble presence under the guidance of the policy was an effective strategy. However, after Ricci’s death, the high profile adopted by the mission and tensions between Carvaglio and Nicholas Longobardi caused setbacks. This article seeks to provide a deeper understanding of how new mission directions and tensions between the administration from above and missions on the ground can impact mission.

十七世纪初的中国传教团：高层管理与实地传教之间的联系

1601 年，利玛窦抵达明朝宫廷，在华传教士以积极的态度采取通融策略，取得了突破性进展。瓦伦丁-卡瓦格里奥（Valentin Carvaglio）的《1601 年中国信札》（Lettre de la Chine de l'an 1601）报道了这一历史时刻，并证明耶稣会士在政策指导下明智、谨慎和谦逊的存在是一种有效的策略。然而，利玛窦去世后，传教团所采取的高姿态以及卡瓦格里奥与尼古拉斯-隆戈巴迪之间的紧张关系导致了挫折。本文试图让读者更深入地了解新的使团方向以及上层管理部门与实地使团之间的紧张关系如何影响使团的工作。
