Beschreibung

Salvation and Revolution traces the intricate paths of Chinese Protestant intellectuals as they grappled with their Christian faith amidst the upheavals of modern China. Beginning with the fall of the Qing Dynasty and journeying through the tumultuous Cultural Revolution, this book considers the lives of figures like Zhao Zichen, Wu Yaozong, and Cai Yongchun, who strove to align Christianity with the nation's quest for renewal.
