We are pleased to announce that the above-mentioned project has again been extended cost-neutrally by the German Research Foundation until fall of 2025. This will allow us to complete our translations of Adam Schall von Bell’s Kunyu gezhi 坤輿格致 (Investigations of the Earth’s Interior; 1640) and Sabatino de Ursis’ Taixi shuifa 泰西水法 (Hydromethods of the Great West; 1612), as well as to finish the two monographs devoted to the history of these two Chinese treatises. In addition, for purposes of scholarly exchange, this will also give us enough time to invite to Tübingen for shorter periods of time foreign scholars who are experts in the history of the Jesuit China mission. Details of the project.
