Fusion 1700: Wonders of the Time
A Forum on Chinese-Western Relations through Christianity in the Ming-Qing Period

This public forum took place on December 2, 2000 at the Oakland Museum of California. It consisted of a series of short lectures and presented by a panel of four scholars from the Ricci Institute of the University of San Francisco.

Each lecture focused on one specific subject area and explored how China and the West interacted through Christianity in the Ming-Qing period. Specific emphasis was placed on the exchanges between the Jesuit missionaries and the Qing imperial court.
