| Résumé : |
The history of Christianity in East Asia can be studied in two ways: one may emphasize the evangelical activities of missionaries from Western countries, or one may focus on the churches that were founded by the hands of Christians born and raised in East Asia. The aim of the present study is to do the latter. It lays stress on the relationship of Christianity to the history and thought of China, but it also raises the fundamental question of whether Christianity has successfully taken root in East Asia. Throughout this book, the author uses the term “indigenization” to encompass all aspects of the vital process whereby Christianity becomes accepted and deeply rooted in an Asian culture and society to such an extent that it is regarded as a religion of the Asian people.
With a view to answering questions related to the problem of “indigenization,” the first part of the present book attempts to describe the history of Chinese Protestant churches in the early twentieth century, while the second part sets out to elucidate the thoughts and ideas revealed in some of the representative works of Chinese Protestant leaders deeply concerned with the task of indigenizing Christianity in their own land. |
