| Résumé: | Preliminary Material -- Introduction -- Setting the Minnan Stage -- Processing Conversion -- Converting Costs -- Minnan Protestants on the Move -- Understanding Chinese Protestant Conflicts -- Networking Conflicts -- Celebrating Protestant Networks -- Incorporating Protestant and Secular Networks -- Conclusion -- Appendix 1: Instances of Minnan Protestant Converts Forfeiting their Employment to Join the Church, 1846–1866 -- Appendix 2: Index of Chinese Characters -- References -- Index. In Sacred Webs , historian Chris White demonstrates how Chinese Protestants in Minnan, or the southern half of Fujian Province, fractured social ties and constructed and utilized new networks through churches, which served as nodes linking individuals into larger Protestant communities. Through analyzing missionary archives, local church reports, and available Chinese records, Sacred Webs depicts Christianity as a Chinese religion and Minnan Protestants as laying claim to both a Christian faith and a Chinese cultural heritage |
