Li Zhizao (1569-1630) Born in Hangzhou, Li was a Catholic and a scientist during the Ming Dynasty. In 1598, Li became an official. He studied under Matteo Ricci and adopted western knowledge and the Catholic doctrine. In 1610, Li was baptized. On his way to his father's funeral, Li invited Lazaro Cattaneo and Nicolas Trigault to preach in Hangzhou. In 1613, Li assumed a position as an official in Nanking and worked with Xu Guangqi. Both men edited and translated numerous Christian literatures into Chinese. Li also helped to translate Matteo Ricci's books into Chinese. Bookmark This Page Send This Page To A Friend
