“This book goes beyond the assumption of a homogeneous Han society and pays attention to the religious groups that emerged after the 17th century, which differed from, or even contradicted with, Confucianism and other Chinese religions, and concerned with how such alien communities influenced the development of Confucianism itself.”
—Wang Fan-sen, Academia Sinica
“This book significantly enriches our comprehension of how early modern Confucians, as adherents of a state/public religion, engaged with Abrahamic religions. By delving into the dynamics of inter-religious interaction, Redefining Heresy and Tolerance sheds new light on the encounters between Confucianism and the Abrahamic faiths, offering fresh insights into the complex religious landscape of Asian culture.”
