The Acta Pekinensia is a Latin manuscript found in the Jesuit Roman Archives. It is a record of the papal legation to China of Charles Thomas Maillard de Tournon, from his arrival in China to his death in Macau.It was compiled by Kilian Stumpf, a German Jesuit missionary/scientist serving at the court of the Kangxi emperor of China. Stumpf was in a privileged position to record day by day the events of this crucial episode not only in the history of Christianity in China but in Chinese-Western relations.
This annotated translation provides a full documentation and an acute and lively commentary on the clash of values which resulted in the failure of the legation and the condemnation of Chinese Rites.
Paul Rule, after a doctoral thesis at the Australian National University on the Jesuit interpretation of Confucianism, was Senior Lecturer in History and Religious Studies at La Trobe University, Melbourne. He is a past President of the Australian Association for the Study of Religion and has worked closely with the Macau Ricci Institute and the Ricci Institute for Chinese-Western Cultural History at Boston College (formerly at the University of San Francisco) and published on the Jesuit missions in China, with a focus on the Chinese Rites Controversy.. Claudia von Collani, Dr.Theol., is Professor at the University of Würzburg, and is a missiologist and specialist in early modern East Asian mission history. She has written extensively on the Chinese Rites Controversy, Figurism, and the exchange of knowledge between China and Europe.
