Synopsis "Generation of Giants: The Story of the Jesuits in China in the Last Decades of the Ming Dynasty"

""Generation of Giants"" is a historical account of the Jesuits in China during the final decades of the Ming Dynasty. Written by George H. Dunne, the book explores the interactions between the Jesuits and the Chinese people, as well as the political and religious tensions that arose during this time period. The book delves into the lives of the Jesuit missionaries, including Matteo Ricci and Adam Schall, and their efforts to spread Christianity in China while also learning about Chinese culture and philosophy. Through primary sources and extensive research, Dunne provides a detailed analysis of the Jesuits' impact on Chinese society and the challenges they faced in their mission. ""Generation of Giants"" offers a unique perspective on the history of China and the role of the Jesuits in its development.This is a new release of the original 1962 edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
