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 (1552-1610) Matteo Ricci was a renowned Catholic Missionary to China during the Ming Dynasty . He was born in Italy and attended Law School in Rome in 1568. 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.

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.

Siris Site Feed (Atom) Weblogs I View Regularly Caveats For a rough introduction to my philosophy of blogging, click here . I consider blogging to be a very informal type of publishing - like putting up thoughts on your door, with a note asking for comments, or like brainstorming sessions. Nothing in this weblog is done rigorously: it's a place for jottings and first impressions. Because I consider posts here to be 'literary seedings' rather than finished products, nothing here should be taken as if it were anything more than an attempt to rough out some basic thoughts on various issues. Learning to look at any topic philosophically requires, I think, jumping right in, even knowing that you might be making a fool of yourelf; so that's what I do. My primary interest in most topics is the flow and structure of reasoning they involve rather than their actual conclusions, so most of my posts are about that. If, however, you find me making a clear factual error, let me know; blogging is a great way to get rid of misconceptions.

The Tomb of Matteo Ricci The tomb of the Jesuit missionary Matteo Ricci stands behind the French Church at 12 Maweigou (Horsetail Ditch) Road in the Fuchengmen district. Ricci died in Beijing in June 1610 at the age of 58. According to the code of the Ming Dynasty, foreigners who died in China had to be buried in Macao. The Jesuits made a special plea to the court, requesting a burial plot in Beijing in view of Ricci' s contributions to China. Emperor Wanli of the Ming Dynasty granted his permission and designated a Buddhist temple, which had been appropriated from a court eunuch for the purpose. In October of 1610, the Jesuit Father' s remains were transferred to the tomb. Constructed of square bricks and surrounded by a brick wall, the tomb is entered through a decorative iron latticework gate. A pair of carved Ming stone vases still stands before the tomb, and a stone tiger from the same period stands outside the gate. Matteo Ricci was born in 1552 of a noble Italian family. He first came to China in 1582 after studying the Chinese language in Macao. He worked for a period in Zhaoqing, then the capital of Guangdong Province, and a number of other places before receiving permission to enter Beijing in 1601. Upon his arrival at eh capital, Ricci presented Emperor Wanli with maps of foreign countries, a chiming clock and other gifts, which induced the emperor to permit Ricci to carry on missionary work in Beijing, and to approve the building of the Southern Cathedral (Nantang), the first Catholic church in the city, near Xuanwumen.

This article appears in the Nov. 9, 2001 of Executive Intelligence Review. Matteo Ricci, the Grand Design, and the Disaster of the 'Rites Controversy' by Michael Billington The apology by Pope John Paul II for the past errors of the Catholic Church in its relations with China, and his appeal to Beijing to renew ties between the Vatican and the People's Republic of China (reproduced in this issue of EIR ), come at a time in which the Pope is playing a crucial role in the campaign to build an ecumenical alliance among the nations of Europe and Asia, as the only alternative to the descent into depression and war now threatening mankind. He chose to make this historic call in the name of Father Matteo Ricci, the Jesuit missionary who opened the first sustained Christian mission in China in 1581. The Pope described Father Ricci as "a precious connecting link between West and East, between European Renaissance culture and Chinese culture, and between the ancient and magnificent Chinese civilization and the world of Europe." As I shall briefly report here, Ricci's role was not limited to his own lifetime; rather, his ideas have been at the center of every subsequent effort to build a true alliance between the people of Europe and those of Asia, based on the principle of reason. As U.S. Democratic 2004 Presidential pre-candidate Lyndon LaRouche said in his address to the Italian Institute for Asia, in Rome, on Oct. 16, an effort to build a world alliance among sovereign nations can never succeed if it is based on the mutual acceptance of each other's opinions, but only through a dialogue based upon a fundamental agreement on an

CHAPTER XI THE ATTEMPT OF MATTEO RICCI TO LINK CHINESE AND WESTERN CULTURES Matteo Ricci not only had a good command of Chinese, but also knew a great deal about Chinese customs and etiquette. He not only dressed in Confucianist style and called himself a "Western Confucianist" ( xiru ) with a square piece of cloth on his head, but also followed the etiquette of a Chinese scholar when meeting visitors. He made a careful study of ancient Chinese classics and records and regarded Confucius as a great man of wide knowledge. Of The Four Books (sishu ) which he translated he wrote that it "was written by the four great philosophers and is full of reasonable ethical thought." To his mind, "it is no use at all just to know our learning without the knowledge of theirs." But how did he treat Chinese culture? In a letter of February 15, 1609, to another missionary he wrote: As I have gradually illustrated, they (the Chinese) also appreciate very much the principle of filial piety, although one might hold different views. To date from its very beginning, they faithfully followed natural law in ancient times, just like the case in our country. In 1500, this nation did not simply worship any idols. Even though they did worship some, these idols were not so detestable as those worshipped by our Egyptians, Greeks and Romans. Some of the gods were even very moral and well-known for their good conduct. As a matter of fact, in the most ancient and authoritative works of the literati, they only worshipped Heaven and Nature and their common master. When making a careful study of all these works, we may find few things contrary to reason, but instead, most of them are corresponding to reason. And their natural philosophers are no worse than anyone else.
