Abstract

This essay examines the ways in which Franciscan authors recounted the history of their missions in East Asia from the sixteenth to the eighteenth century. Key differences between Franciscan authors and those of other orders are highlighted, with special emphasis placed on disputes over precedence in the Asian mission field, over privileges accorded by the papacy for missionary activity, and over the prestige secured by acts of pious heroism and appointments to high ecclesiastical offices. Chronicles served as important adjuncts to the face-toface rivalries of Catholic religious orders, with the Franciscans dueling their peers for pride of place in historical memory. The publication of Franciscan histories in Europe ensured that the conflicts between orders extended around the globe, while their original intention was to consolidate the memories of distant efforts to plant and grow the church.
记忆的征服:近代早期东亚教会的方济会编年史
这篇文章考察了方济各会作者叙述他们从16世纪到18世纪在东亚传教的历史的方式。方济各会的作者和其他修会的作者之间的主要差异被强调了出来,特别强调了在亚洲传教领域的优先权,教皇赋予传教活动的特权,以及由虔诚的英雄主义行为和任命到高级教会职位所获得的声望。编年史是天主教修会之间面对面竞争的重要辅助工具,方济各会为了在历史记忆中占据最重要的位置而与其他修会进行较量。方济各会历史在欧洲的出版确保了各修会之间的冲突扩展到全球,而他们的初衷是巩固对遥远的教会种植和发展努力的记忆。

期刊介绍: Culture & History Digital Journal features original scientific articles and review articles, aimed to contribute to the methodological debate among historians and other scholars specialized in the fields of Human and Social Sciences, at an international level. Using an interdisciplinary and transversal approach, this Journal poses a renovation of the studies on the past, relating them and dialoguing with the present, breaking the traditional forms of thinking based on chronology, diachronic analysis, and the classical facts and forms of thinking based exclusively on textual and documental analysis. By doing so, this Journal aims to promote not only new subjects of History, but also new forms of addressing its knowledge.
