A subtle and multi-faceted exploration of the Chinese Christian experience through the author's creative engagement with key Chinese and Christian texts.
The aim of this thesis is to unfold the multilayered intersubjective experience of the author himself, a Chinese pastor. The author postulates himself as the subject in whom the said experience was evident, so that it can be analyzed and interpreted. The author argues for a cultural-linguistic experience of shì as the locus at which the intersubjective experience takes place. He then shows that such experience embodies a Chinese Christian's 'two texts' inheritance, and argues that it is through unfolding or revealing of such experience that the nature of his relationship with them can be demonstrated.
