    I've just finished reading Jonathan Spence's "The Memory Palace of Matteo Ricci", an inventively organized study of the life of a leading early Jesuit missionary in Ming China.

    Now I want to read something substantial on the Rites Controversy.

    Suggestions welcome!

    I recently went over a tribute I wrote for Matteo Ricci. He was an amazing scholar of Chinese born over 400 years ago who was the first Western advisor to the Chinese court in the Forbidden City. See the tribute I posted below. #chinese #scholars #classicalchinese #matteoricci
