Resumo: The movement of Asian missions in the first Modern Age was characterized by a hermeneutic attitude which can be understood as the “consciousness of the problem of context”, that is, a conscientious reflection upon the mission itself. This consciousness turned out to be the basis for the reformulation of the Christian message through which the latter emancipated itself from the historical context of the Western civilization. The present article refers to this period suggesting an innovative comparative analysis of the challenges Christian missionaries in Japan, China and India had to face in order to overcome the hermeneutic limits imposed by Buddhism.

Esse texto pretende apontar para uma análise comparativa inédita desta problemática para a época, entre o Japão, a China e a Índia, tentando desvendar como, nesse percurso, o Budismo se impôs, necessariamente, enquanto possibilidade privilegiada de mediação missionária, mesmo entre seus próprios limites hermenêuticos.Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2013-06-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/rever/article/view/16167REVER: Journal for the Study of Religion; Vol. 13 No. 1 (2013): Islã e Antropologia; 131-168REVER: Revista de Estudos da Religião; v. 13 n. 1 (2013): Islã e Antropologia; 131-1681677-1222reponame:Rever (São Paulo.
