The Dialogue between Daoism and Catholicism in the Late Ming and Early Qing Dynasty and Its Significance

Abstract

Abstract: The coming of Catholic missionaries to China in the Ming and Qing Dynasties was a collision and communication between the Chinese and Western cultures. The dialogue between Daoism and Catholicism related to the role of Daoism in the encounter of Chinese and Western cultures, as well as the role of“the true spirit of Daoism”in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The Catholic missionaries with the Jesuits as the main body, did not attach importance to and despise Daoism, refecting the situation of Daoism in the Ming and Qing Dynasties from one side. In addition, according to Daoisms lack of a clear attitude and response to Catholic missions in China, the“ true spirit of Daoismn” did not have an effect on Catholicism, and the malaise of Daoism in the Ming and Qing dynastics may have something to do with it. The study of the dialogue between Daoism and Catholicism in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties is of great historical and realistic significance to both sides.

Key words: Late Ming and Early Qing, Daoism, Catholicism, Dialogue
