Excerpt from In the Shadow of the Drum Tower In the farthest corner of a little mud house lay a tiny yellow form, racked with a scorching fever. The day was mercilessly hot, but in the middle of the hut was a fire burning brightly and filling the air with choking smoke, for the only outlet was a hole in the wall. A woman, weary with watching, struggled about to keep the fire hot. Surely the heat would drive away the evil spirit that was haunting the body Of her baby boy! She leaned low over the tiny form. The heartbeat was so faint that she could scarcely hear it. The breath came short and the hand was limp and cold. She knew that Death was near, and he must not find his victim under cover. If he did, the evil spirits would haunt the house ever after. Gathering all the garments the baby had ever worn, and catching her boy to her heart, she stumbled out Of the hut into the full light of a summer day. The sunlight dazzled her, and the throbbing in her temples was almost beyond endurance. She must lay him on the hillside, but let it be in the shade where the burning rays of the sun would be warded Off. Stumblingly, with many a halt and struggle, the weary woman at last reached the place for which she was searching - the shadow of the great Drum Tower! She fell to a sitting posture, and fighting the age-old sorrow that oppressed her, proceeded to put on the dying baby the garments she had brought. He would need them all in the world to which he was going. How she longed for more to contribute to his happiness and comfort in the eternities to come! Just then the great drum sounded out the noontime call to prayer. Unable to endure the dull thud in her ears she took one last look at the drawn little face and fled.

The present collection was written to commemorate the third centenary of the death of the Portuguese Jesuit, Tomás Pereira (1645–1708). Dealing with some of the most decisive and controversial moments in the history of the Jesuit mission in China during the Kangxi era (1662–1722), these essays were produced by an international team of scholars and cover a wide range of topics that reflect a permanent academic interest, in Europe and America as well as in China, in the history of the Catholic mission in China, Sino-Russian diplomacy, the history of Western science and music in China, intercultural history, and history of art. While the names of such missionaries as Matteo Ricci, Adam Schall and Ferdinand Verbiest are well known, Pereira has been relatively neglected, and this volume seeks to redress that imbalance. Pereira was important as a musician and diplomat and was closer to the Kangxi emperor than any other Westerner, something that enabled him to exert considerable influence for the protection of the Chinese Christians and also to further the interests of Portugal in China. However, towards the end of his life he saw his efforts undermined by the damaging consequences of the papal legation to China led by Charles-Thomas Maillard de Tournon.

This is the second of two volumes on the Sung Dynasty, which together provide a comprehensive history of China from the fall of the T'ang Dynasty in 907 to the Mongol conquest of the Southern Sung in 1279. With contributions from leading historians in the field, Volume 5, Part Two paints a complex portrait of a dynasty beset by problems and contradictions, but one which, despite its military and geopolitical weakness, was nevertheless economically powerful, culturally brilliant, socially fluid and the most populous of any empire in global history to that point. In this much anticipated addition to the series, the authors survey key themes across ten chapters, including government, economy, society, religion, and thought to provide an authoritative and topical treatment of a profound and significant period in Chinese history.
