Summary:

"La mostra 'Ai crinali della storia. Padre Matteo Ricci (1552/1610) fra Roma e Pechino', curata da Antonio Paolucci e Giovanni Morello, celebra i 400 anni della morte di Matteo Ricci: il primo italiano che introdusse la cultura occidentale in Cina e fece conoscere la Cina all'Europa. Il catalogo, a cui hanno collaborato illustri studiosi, italiani e stranieri, segue il percorso della mostra, diviso in cinque sezioni che ricordano la vita e l'opera del gesuita marchigiano. Ampio spazio è dato alla Cina al tempo di Matteo Ricci. Si presentano preziose opere d'arte, strumenti scientifici, manoscritti autografi e libri cinesi. Il tutto nelle suggestive scenografie create da Pier Luigi Pizzi."--P. 4 of cover.
