Autor Susangeline Y. Patrick
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 15 noi 2023
Examining the stories of diverse Christians in Shanghai, this book uses the city as a model to highlight how a minority religion in a city has interacted with other religions as well as social, cultural, political, and economic changes.Susangeline Y. Patrick illustrates how the history of Shanghai Christians sheds light on why and how Christians have accommodated social and political changes, and gives valuable insights into multiculturalism, globalization, sinicization, and ecclesiology. The interreligious dialogues between Shanghai Christians and other traditions such as Buddhism, Daoism, Confucianism, Islam, and Judaism throughout history provide worthy reflections on the roles of Christians in a multi-religious space.

Recenzii

Like other global cities, Shanghai is a dynamic hub of Christianity. The city acts as a pair of lungs, inhaling believers from across China and around the world, then exhaling them to embark on new and surprising trajectories. Patrick outlines the significance of these movements, illuminating the strategic role that Shanghai has played in shaping World Christianity for the past four centuries.
With rich knowledge of mission history and valuable insight into the social and cultural context, Dr Patrick skillfully depicts a kaleidoscope of the rises and falls of Shanghai Christians over recent centuries. This book provides a window into the living faith forged under pressure in this vibrant cosmopolitan city that invites revival and renewal of Chinese Christianity with a global vision. A must-read resource!
