商品描述
This book examines cross-cultural encounters of the Jesuit missionary enterprise in early modern Southwest Asia. It analyzes the early mission to Syria, paying attention to the key interlocutors of the Jesuits and the many challenges they experienced in their exchanges with other Europeans, Ottoman officials, and Eastern Christians. It demonstrates that there was nominal Muslim-Christian dialogue and important relationships formed between the Jesuits and their Christian and Muslim hosts. The Jesuits in Syria shows that the Jesuits worked in a very complex environment, where competing factions of Europeans, European religious, Eastern Christians, Arab Muslims, Turkish officials, and Turkish Muslims, not to mention "renegades," played important roles.
The book examines missionary correspondence and other complementary sources. It also contrasts the way that the Jesuits wrote about their efforts internally with how they addressed the same topics in "public" documents, either printed or manuscript. It shows that the Jesuits described Islam and Syria in several ways, depending on the nature of the sources. For internal audiences, they wrote of their challenges with Franciscans, French, and Venetian consular figures, and Ottoman officials. For the broader public, whether in Jesuit colleges or in print, they harped on the problems posed by "schismatics" and Muslims. In this way, this volume enriches the story of the early modern Mediterranean.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書探討了耶穌會傳教事業在早期現代西南亞的跨文化遭遇。它分析了早期對敘利亞的傳教,關注耶穌會士的主要對話者以及他們在與其他歐洲人、奧斯曼官員和東方基督徒交流中所面臨的諸多挑戰。書中顯示,雖然名義上存在穆斯林與基督徒之間的對話,但耶穌會士與他們的基督教和穆斯林東道主之間形成了重要的關係。耶穌會士在敘利亞的經歷表明,他們在一個非常複雜的環境中工作,競爭的歐洲派系、歐洲宗教、東方基督徒、阿拉伯穆斯林、土耳其官員和土耳其穆斯林,甚至包括“叛徒”,都扮演了重要角色。
本書檢視了傳教士的通信及其他補充資料。它還對比了耶穌會士在內部文件中對其努力的描述與他們在“公共”文件中(無論是印刷品還是手稿)所表達的相同主題。書中顯示,耶穌會士根據資料的性質以不同方式描述伊斯蘭教和敘利亞。對於內部受眾,他們寫下了與方濟會士、法國人、威尼斯領事和奧斯曼官員的挑戰。對於更廣泛的公眾,無論是在耶穌會學院還是印刷品中,他們則強調了“分裂者”和穆斯林所帶來的問題。透過這種方式,本書豐富了早期現代地中海的故事。
