The art of printing was practiced in China at a date somewhat earlier than that assigned to the beginning to printing in Europe, which was about 1405. It is quite certain that the Chinese knew the art of printing at least five centuries ago, and some of them assert that printing was known to their people before the beginning of the Christian era, about 50 BCE Their method of printing differs widely from that employed in Europe, and our method would be quite impracticable for them because of the exceedingly large number of Chinese characters and symbols, At present they cut their charcters in a reverse position and in a simplified form, on a comparatively' small tablet made for the most part from the wood of the pear tree or the apple tree, although at times the wood of the jujube tree is also used for this purpose.

26. Matteo Ricci matteo RICCIPER UN DIALOGO TRA CINA E OCCIDENTE 1. Con intima gioia mi rivolgo a voi http://www.gesuiti.it/StoriaDiPersone/xPersonaggi/Persone/ricci.html

Matteo Ricci Il "rilancio", per così dire, è stato fatto nel 1982 per celebrare il quarto centenario del suo arrivo in Cina. In un discorso tenuto in quell'occasione alla Matteo Ricci nasce a Macerata il 6 ottobre 1552, lo stesso anno in cui a Sanciano, di fronte a Canton, muore Francesco Xavier senza realizzare l'ambìto sogno di sbarcare nell' "Impero Celeste"; sarà proprio il Ricci, esatamente tret'anni dopo, a sstabilirsi nel territorio cinese e a fondare la prima missione cattolica a Sciaochin (oggi Zhaoqin). A questi importanti contributi nel campo scientifico dobbiamo aggiungere quello nel campo specificamente religioso, come missionario dell'ancora giovane Compagnia di Gesù. Il suo metodo di evangelizzazione si può riassumere nella breve espressione «farsi cinese con i cinesi», cioè l' "inculturazione" linguistica, sociale, intellettuale e religiosa. Per raggiungere questo obiettivo si adeguò, anche nel modo di vivere esterno, alle usanze e tradizioni cinesi, cosa che non mancò di procurargli noie e critiche da altri missionari e talvolta anche dai confratelli. G. Bellucci, S.J.

Joining the Christian Association in 1571, Ricci became a Father in India. In 1580, Ricci came to Macao and arrived at Zhao Qing the following year with the company of Michaele Ruggieri. Ricci was known as the 'Western Monk'. In 1589, he traveled to Zhao Zhou to preach, where he studied the 'Four Books and Five Jings' of China. In 1594, Ricci adopted the Chinese outfit and called himself the 'Western Scholar on Confucianism'. He preached in Nanking and Nanjing in 1595 and became the president of the Chinese Christian Association in 1596. Accompanied by Wang Zhongming, Ricci traveled from Nanking to Beijing in 1598 to meet the Emperor, but was unsuccessful. He returned to Nanking in 1599. Two years later, Ricci returned to Beijing to pay tribute to Emperor Ming Shenzhong and this time met him. Ming Shenzhong was quite impressed by Ricci and granted him the permission to preach in Beijing, the capital. With the help of Xu Guangqi , Ricci wrote 'Principle of Geometry', 'True Meaning of Heavenly Knowledge', 'Christian Missionaries in China', etc.

Tomb of Matteo Ricci (1610) Matteo Ricci's tomb is located two miles from the west gate of the Beijing city. The tomb is of the shape of a small hill. The title on the tomb reads, '1610, Pioneer of Christian Missionary'. There is a cross carved on the tomb with inscription in both Latin and Chinese. On the two sides are the tombs of Ferdinand Verbiest, and Jojann Adam Scall von Bell . Due to Ricci's achievements in China, the communist Chinese regards the tomb highly and has been doing a good job in up-keeping it and protecting the tomb from vandalism.

Matteo Ricci and the Jesuits Matteo Ricci was not the first Catholic missionary to enter China, that honor probably going to John of Montecorvino, a Franciscan, who went to the east in the first years of fourteenth century. He reports making many converts and staying at the court of the great Khan. But by the end of the fourteenth century, the Black Death devestated Europe and interest dissolved, while the eventual end of the Mongol empire and rise of the native Ming Dynasty rendered Central Asia impassible and China, having just expelled a foreign dynasty, inhospitable to further outside influences. Although John wrote in letters to Rome that he converted over six thousand, and built a church to minister to them, no trace remained by the time Matteo Ricci came to China at the turn of the 17th Century. Ricci was a member or the Society of Jesus, also called the Jesuits, founded in 1540 by Ignatius of Loyola specifically to convert the heathen overseas. They conceived their mission as conquering the world for Christ. They placed great stress on education, and it was not by accident that Ricci was a deeply learned man with knowledge of a wide variety of subjects.

Message from the President Current Events University News ... Campus Visit Prog. Matteo Ricci, S.J. The Frontispiece The Wise Man from the West .) Painted in 1610 by the Chinese brother Emmanuel Pereira (born Yu Wen-hui), who had learned his art from the Italian Jesuit, Giovanni Nicolao. The age is incorrect: Ricci died during his fifty-eighth year. Probably he himself believed he was older than that, for as ealy as 1571, when he entered the novitiate, he could not be certain whether his age was eighteen or nineteen. The portrait was taken to Rome in 1616 and displayed at the Jesuit house together with paintings of Ignatius of Loyola and Francis Xavier. It still hangs there. Who was Matteo Ricci? Matteo Ricci was an Italian Jesuit priest and missionary, scientist, humanist, and educator–a Renaissance Man. He ranks as the most cultivated man of his time and "one of the most remarkable and brilliant men of history." The founder of the modern Chinese Church, Matteo Ricci is respected as a national figure even by the Chinese Communist Party. For Ricci, learning and academic excellence in the Jesuit way served as a magnet that could draw people to God. As with all things, learning comes from God, and finally, nothing is really secular. An authority on mathematics, astronomy, apologetics, literature, popular catechesis, poetry, and a lover of art and music, Ricci fascinated and attracted the Chinese intelligentsia. He approached evangelization primarily, but not solely, through the scientific apostolate.

Matteo Ricci on the Web from The Memory Palace of Matteo Ricci Jonathan D. Spence Viking, 1984 In 1596 Matteo Ricci taught the Chinese how to build a memory palace. He told them that the size of the palace would depend on how much they wanted to remember: the most ambitious construction would consist of several hundred buildings of all shapes and sizes; "the more there are the better it will be," said Ricci, though he added that one did not have to build on a grandiose scale right away. One could create modest palaces, or one could build less dramatic structures such as a temple compound, a cluster of government offices, a public hostel, or a merchants' meeting lodge. If one wished to begin on a still smaller scale, then one could erect a simple reception hall, a pavilion, or a studio. And if one wanted an intimate space one could use just the corner of a pavilion, or an altar in a temple, or even such a homely object as a wardrobe or a divan. In summarizing this memory system, he explained that these palaces, pavilions, divans were mental structures to be kept in one's head, not solid objects to be literally constructed out of "real" materials. Ricci suggested that there were three main options for such memory locations.

Matteo Ricci, S.J. Matteo Ricci, S.J., was the most illustrious of the early Jesuit missionaries to China. Born in Macerata, Italy, he studied in Rome, Coimbra and Goa. Arriving in Macao in 1582, he began intensive study of Chinese language, history and literature. After living in Zhaoqing and Nanjing, he moved to Beijing in 1603. Ricci succeeded in gaining the respect and friendship of many Chinese literati through his personal qualities, his writings and his many technical talents. Cartography, mathematics, astronomy, music, philosophy and the physical sciences accompanied his instruction in the Christian faith. Many of his students and associates were converted to the Christian faith and baptized. They became the "pillars of the Chinese Catholic Church." Ricci's studies leading to the first translation of the Confucian Four Books into Latin and his creation of the first romanization system for Chinese qualify him as the founder of Western sinology.

38. The Ricci Institute - Matteo Ricci, S.J. Logo of the ricci Institute for ChineseWestern Cultural History. We are proudthat it may represent our City, San Francisco, and our ricci Institute. http://www.usfca.edu/ricci/rilogo.htm

Logo of the Ricci Institute for Chinese-Western Cultural History Created in 1991 by Jie She, an art major student of the Academy of Art in San Francisco, the logo of the Ricci Institute symbolizes our commitment to the study of cultural exchanges between China and the West. The phoenix represented within the shield in an ancient Chinese style, is a rich symbol in both Chinese and Western art. In the West, the Phoenix first appears in the ancient Egyptian myth of a beautiful solitary bird that lives in the Arabian desert. Every 500 years, the bird consumes itself in fire, rising renewed from the ashes to start another long life. From the earliest times a symbol of immortality, it has since the time of Clement of Rome (ca. 100 A.D.) been seen as a symbol of resurrection and rebirth. By the time of the Renaissance it had become a common motif visible in many forms. A fourth century mosaic Phoenix very similar in form to the Chinese concept existed in Old St. Peter's and was placed in the Museo di Roma. Familiar to Classical and Early Christian art and literature in the West, and a symbol of harmony and virtue in the East, the Phoenix fulfills an important function with respect to human existence and imagination. We are proud that it may represent our City, San Francisco, and our Ricci Institute.

40. From Matteo Ricci To Cross-cultural Understanding 01 November 2001. From matteo ricci to crosscultural understanding.- Peter Ho. Linkage's encounter with the President this month http://www.cityu.edu.hk/cityutoday/news/category/forum/culture/n20011101_02.htm

01 November 2001 From Matteo Ricci to cross-cultural understanding Peter Ho Linkage 's encounter with the President this month was not our usual friendly chat in his office but a conversation we had during some quiet moments one crisp October morning in the heart of Beijing, in the grounds where Matteo Ricci is buried. Ricci was, of course, the Italian Jesuit missionary who was dispatched to China in the late 16th century in the hope of converting the Chinese into Christians. The President, together with a dozen other scholars from the mainland, Hong Kong and other places overseas, was attending the second leg of a programme to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the arrival of Ricci in Beijing. It was part of an academic conference organized by the newly-established Centre for Cross-Cultural Studies . The graves of Ricci and some contemporaries of his Jesuit Order are now tucked away in a quiet enclave on the campus of the Beijing Administrative College, a few miles away from the bustling Wangfujing main shopping area. The President was at times inspecting the intricate stone engravings on the tombstones, or asking questions about the state of the relics, all the while trying to get a fuller grasp of the historical legacy surrounding the monument. "This is where memories of Matteo Ricci as a historical figure have been laid to rest and also where, thanks to him, 400 years of cultural interactions between China and the West began to flourish."
