Wang Lab

AboutAbout the lab

Knowledge exchange carried by books.

The Wang Lab's main research field is the history of Christianity in China from the 16th century onward.
Using methodologies such as history, intellectual history, bibliography, and comparative literature, the lab studies how doctrine was translated into Chinese and received as both scholarly and religious knowledge in China.
From the perspective of global history, the lab also studies the intellectual exchange between Asia and Europe through missionaries as intermediaries.
Recently, the lab has also taken up digital humanities, a field that combines the humanities and information science, and studies the structuring and use of text data that conforms to international standards.

Ratings and reviews reflect the experiences of individual current or former students, not the lab's official views. Whether a lab has reviews, or how many, says nothing about the lab itself.
