A Franciscan Tombstone in Fourteenth-Century China: A Global History - Elements in the Global Middle Ages
Wu, Nancy (Educator Emeritus, The Metropolitan Museum of Art)
This Element examines the tombstone for Andrew of Perugia (d. 1332?), the sole surviving object from the 14C Franciscan mission in China. Its discovery, and that of other Christian monuments over the centuries, demonstrate how various Christian churches interacted with their host society from the eighth through the fourteenth centuries.
