This is a multilingual collection mainly of primary sources from around the world on early Christian history in China. Works here are in Chinese, Latin, Portuguese, Dutch, German, Spanish, French, etc. (not English). It contains the work of early Dominicans, Franciscans, Jesuits and others as well as works from the early local church in China.

The works are listed alphabetical by title. Click on “author” or “date” to sort the collection by those categories.

Works on the history of the Christian Church in China written in English can be found in the historical collection (1820 to 1949) or in the main collection (1949 to date). The very earliest works by the Jesuit missionaries (Ricci, Trigault, Schall von Bell, Kircher, Martini, Amiot, etc.) are in the collection on “How the West Learned of China”. These, and all the books in the main collection of over 17,000 works on China in English, can be searched in the Library Catalog.
