The volume, edited by Tao Feiya and featuring recent Chinese scholarly articles translated into English for the first time by Max L. Bohnenkamp, traces the history of Christianity in China and explores the dynamics of Christian practices in Chinese society. Its twenty chapters, written by Chinese scholars of the history of religion, span the development of Christianity in China from the era of the Tang Dynasty to the twentieth century. The four parts of the volume explore the Sinicization of Christian texts and thought, the conflicts within China between Christianity and Chinese institutions, relations between religious groups, and societal and political issues beyond religion. Taken together, this volume places the practice of Christianity in China into the context of world history, while investigating the particular and localized challenges of Christianity’s spread in China.

Journey into the depths of the human soul with "Soul's Mirror," a mesmerizing collection of poetry that explores the complexities of the human experience through the lens of introspection and self-discovery. Within these pages, readers will find a tapestry of emotions, dreams, and aspirations, woven together by the threads of shared humanity. The poets of "Soul's Mirror" invite us on an introspective odyssey, delving into the labyrinthine corridors of the heart, where love and loss dance in delicate balance, and where dreams and aspirations flicker like distant stars. With poignant grace and profound insight, these poets capture the ephemeral nature of human existence, reminding us of the fleeting beauty of life and the inevitability of our own mortality. Yet, amidst the contemplation of life's transient nature, "Soul's Mirror" also celebrates the resilience and indomitable spirit of the human soul. Its verses pay homage to the strength we find in vulnerability, the courage we summon in the face of adversity, and the unwavering hope that carries us through the darkest of times. As we journey through the chapters of "Soul's Mirror," we encounter a kaleidoscope of emotions, from the depths of despair to the heights of ecstasy. We witness the unfolding of love stories, both joyous and heartbreaking, and we bear witness to the struggles and triumphs of the human spirit. With each turn of the page, "Soul's Mirror" serves as a mirror, reflecting the depths of our own souls and illuminating the path toward self-understanding and enlightenment. This collection of poetry is an invitation to embark on a profound journey of self-discovery, to explore the hidden corners of our own consciousness, and to embrace the beauty and complexity of being human.

Zoroastrianism is one of the world's oldest religions, though it is not among the best understood. Originating with Iranian tribes living in Central Asia in the second millennium BCE, Zoroastrianism was the official religion of the Iranian empires until Islam superseded it in the seventh century AD. Centered on the worship of Ahura Mazda, the All-knowing Ruler, Zoroastrianism follows the practices and rituals set out by the prophet Zarathustra, according to the indigenous tradition. As one of the world's great religions, Zoroastrianism has a heritage rich in texts and cultic practices. The texts are often markedly difficult to translate, but in this volume, Prods Oktor Skjærvø, professor of ancient Iranian languages and culture at Harvard, provides modern and accurate translations of Zoroastrian texts that have been selected to provide an overview of Zoroastrian beliefs and practices. In a comprehensive introduction to these sacred texts, Skjærvø outlines the history and essence of Zoroastrianism and discusses the major themes of this the first fully representative selection of Zoroastrian texts to be made available in English for over a century.

Since its first appearance in 1960, Documents of the Baptismal Liturgy has been praised and used by scholars in understanding how the rite of baptism was celebrated through the centuries. This new edition retains the sources previously included and adds Eastern Christian texts from the great East Syrian Church Fathers, as well as selections from The Rite of the Assyrian Church of the East, the Syrian Orthodox Church, and the Maronite Rite. Additional Western texts include the famous Pentecost Homily attributed to Faustus of Riez, Letter 26 to Januarius from Pope Gregory I, and the Rite of Confirmation from the Pontifical of William Durandus. Instead of placing local councils together in one section, individual councils are now placed in their respective geographic locals. Bibliographical lists in a variety of languages have been added for each document studied or for each locale; and translations have often been replaced with more recent versions. The glossary and the introductions to each document make it accessible to the general, as well as the specialist, reader. Chapters are The Ante-Nicene Church," *Syria, Syro-Palestine, Antiochia, - *The Rite of the Assyrian Church of the East, - *The Armenian Rite, - *The Syriac-Maronite Rite, - *The Byzantine Rite, - *Egypt, - *Africa, - *Spain, - *Milan, - *Rome, - *Galican Documents, - and *The Sarum Rite. - E.
