Since we now have a well-established (sub)discipline of late antique archaeology, which tends to have a wider scope in looking at the entire archaeological record of this period, one may well wonder whether ‘Christian archaeology’ has a future, and if so, in what form; some more reflections on this issue beyond the fleeting ones in the introduction would have been in order. Throughout the book, one also notes a certain looseness in the terminology used, such as ‘pagan’/‘paganism’, which is employed throughout without qualification or even quotation marks.

On page  Yang notes that some Chinese rejected the pope’s status due to it resembling the emperor, but Giuliu Aleni moved to place priests as ‘the intermediary’ and Lodovico Buglio emphasised the power of the priest to celebrate mass (p. ). The author is keen to point out that the relationship priests had with their converts was quite different from in Chinese religions. In particular, they involved themselves in the private lives of their converts more than the other Chinese religions. While some of their activities coincided with other Chinese religious leaders, the Jesuit priests sought to show a different role for Church leaders. The developments and actions by the missionaries sometimes led to opposition and violence against the Catholics, leading to an urgency to develop an indigenous clergy. The author goes on to note that priests maintained that they were the only ones who could celebrate mass, but they also ‘deputised’ Chinese catechists with the ability to perform baptisms, lead prayer when a priest could not celebrate mass and other duties (p. ). In this transition, the Holy Office declared that the Chinese clergy were allowed to produce a Bible in literary Chinese and that they could hold mass in Chinese rather than Latin. The issue of Latin was a key stumbling block to developing a Chinese clergy but this permitted its formation without the requirement that they be able to say mass and perform other duties in Latin (pp. –). Yang shows that Sinicisation even extended down to the ‘sacrificial hat’ that Chinese priests wore during mass. The hat clearly displays Chinese traditions in the form of flowers mixed with Christian images of the cross (p. ). Through her detailed analysis of all aspects of the mass Yang is able to include some enlightening examples of Sinicisation/inculturation. The book is clearly well researched with a plethora of related secondary sources and new primary sources, particularly Chinese language sources. Overall, Hongfan Yang has produced an excellent book that gives the reader a clear view of the development of the Catholic Church in China and the engagement with Chinese society of Catholic rituals in the early period of Jesuit missionary activity.","PeriodicalId":45146,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47986192","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Lindenfeld reserves special attention for an eighth mode, ‘concentration of spirituality’, which he places at the centrepoint of his schema and which comes closest to a master theme for the book. World histories have tended to conform to a narrative of an evolution from diffuse local cultural forms to ever more homogeneity, from worlds of ‘enchantment’, in Weberian terms, to a singular world of rationality and conformity. The study of local responses to Christianity suggest a much more complex and pluralistic reality. All religious traditions, Lindenfeld argues, exhibit a tension between concentrated expressions in the forms of religious offices, collective rituals, core mythologies and so forth and the diffuse more personal and private experiences of individuals. Engagement with mission Christianity brought not only new foci for concentrated spirituality but also shifts in the more diffused ways people experienced and expressed spirituality. In more of a coda than a conclusion, Lindenfeld contests the idea that the Western world is becoming ever more secular. Instead, taking an expansive view of religion, he argues instead that the trend has been towards an ever more diffused personal spirituality. The inherent tension that he suggests is at the heart of every religious tradition now plays out on a scale, as Churches continue to expand in the global South even as they decline in the West. The short conclusion provides one of the rare instances where Lindenfeld attempts to generalise beyond regional levels. Suggesting that his schema of ‘strategies’ should be deployed as a ‘vocabulary’ rather than a typology, for the most part he draws on it lightly, more as commentary than analysis. Each chapter presents an informative synthesis of regional scholarship enlivened by the author’s often acute insights on the myriad ways local peoples responded to the challenges and potentialities in their encounters with Western Christianity. The general picture Lindenfeld presents, however, is for the most part fragmentary and diffuse. World Christianity and indigenous experience does not so much serve as a model for a comprehensive approach to World Christianity that acknowledges the contributions of the non-Westerners who today make up the majority of its adherents but rather as evidence of how challenging that goal remains.","PeriodicalId":45146,"journal":{"name":"JOURNAL OF ECCLESIASTICAL HISTORY","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48562844","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"哲学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
