马相伯及其天主教本土化理论——从结合体到和合体的转变

Ma Xiangbo and His Theory of Catholic Localization:An Conversion from the Combined One to Integrated One

马相伯是中国近代著名的教育家、宗教家、政治家。他自幼便受到中国传统文化和西方天主教文化的良好教育,这两种原本异质的文化结合在马相伯一人身上。这两种文化之间无疑是具有张力的,而马相伯的一生便是这种张力的充分映照。如何消除这种张力,如何从异质对立的结合体转变为相成相济的和合体,这也便是天主教如何本土化的问题。

Ma Xiangbo is a modern Chinese educator,regionalist and politician.Even from his childhood,he has received good education of Chinese traditional culture and Western Catholic culture.When Ma received the two entirely different cultures,the tension from the two cultures will definitely exerts great influence on him,and this can be observed from Ma throughout his life.How to eliminate this force and how to convert from the combination of two different factors into one,which is complementary to each other,is the point of how to localize Catholics in China.
