  • ... that though the Jesuit missionary He Tianzhang despised his "sad Chinese appearance", it allowed him to circumvent the Qing's ban on Christianity and enter China? Source:
    "sad Chinese appearance" came from Pina, Isabel Murta (2013). ""Hand and Feet of Us All": Chinese and Mixed Parentage Jesuits from the China Mission (1589–1689)" (PDF). In Yu Taishan; Li Jingxiu (eds.). 絲瓷之路——古代中外關係史研究 [The Road of Silk and Chinaware: Studies on the History of Ancient China-Foreign Relations]. Beijing: 商務印書館 (Commercial Press). ISBN 978-7-100-09902-8. The fact that He Tianzhang reentered China because he was Chinese-looking came from pp. 65–66, Witek, John W. (2009). "Confucian practices and Christian principles in the Qing period: A Jesuit pastor, Francis Xavier do Rosario He Tianzhang (1667-1736)". In Philip Vanhaelemeersch; Rachel Lu Yan (eds.). Silent force: Native converts in the Catholic China mission. Leuven: Ferdinand Verbiest Institute. pp. 59–73. ISBN 978-90-814-3650-2.
