Summary The diffusion of Christianity along the Silk Road from Iraq and Iran to China in the premodern era has attracted scholarly attention in the West since the discovery of the famous Xian (Nestorian) Monument c. 1623. This initial discovery was dismissed as a Jesuit forgery by Voltaire, Edward Gibbon and many other scholars of the Enlightenment. However, its authenticity has been more than vindicated by the discovery of genuine (Nestorian / Jingjiao) Christian texts in Chinese from Dunhuang and in Syriac, Sogdian and Old Turkish from Turfan (Bulayq) at the beginning of the last century. Besides confirming the existence of a Tang era Chinese Christian church (Jingjiao), additional archaeological and literary evidence has accumulated of a Christian presence in China during the later Song and Yuan periods (Yelikewenjiao). These churches were the subject of a conference of international specialists in Hong Kong in 2015. The current volume of eleven articles has grown out of the papers presented there.

Europalia 2009 China: CHINESE ROUTE. Op zoek naar China in Belgie.
Brussel, Mercatorfonds, 2009 Paperback met flappen, 230x170mm, 96p, 100 ill. in kleur. NL. ISBN 9789061539087.
Lang voor ons land het hart van Europa werd, was het al betrokken bij enkele hoogtepunten in de geschiedenis van de relaties tussen het Westen en het 'Middenrijk'. In het centrum van Beijing staat vandaag nog steeds, ietwat verdoken tussen de wolkenkrabbers, het observatorium van Ferdinand Verbiest, een van onze bekendste Chinamissionarissen. Het openbaar vervoer van de havenstad Tianjin is nog altijd gebaseerd op de eerste tramlijnen die er door onze landgenoten werden aangelegd aan het begin van de twintigste eeuw. Ook de eerste spoorwegverbinding tussen Beijing en het huidige Wuhan, een titanenwerk van 1270 kilometer, was van Belgische makelij. Over de hele wereld, van China tot in Belgie en ver daarbuiten, is bovendien het verhaal bekend van onze stripheld Kuifje en zijn vriendschap met de Chinese Zhang Chongren. Op het eerste gezicht ligt het in Belgie niet voor de hand om China tegen te komen op de hoek van elke straat. Toch zijn er in ons land her en der pareltjes van de Chinese kunst en traditie terug te vinden. Op de meest onverwachte plaatsen kan men Chinese symbolen aantreffen en contactpunten tussen Oost en West ontdekken. Chinese route wijst de lezer de weg langs Chinese bezienswaardigheden in Belgie. Onderweg vertelt deze gids de bijzondere verhalen die schuilgaan achter de Chinese kunstwerken, monumenten en chinoiserieen die men bij ons kan bewonderen.
