A Chinese Muslim Thought on Microcosm/Universe : in the Case of Liu Zhi's Tianfang Xingli Written in the Early Qing Dynasty.

众所周知，在明末清初，中国穆斯林突然开始以中文书籍的形式表达自己，其中最引人注目的是刘志的《天放行礼》。它的特殊性在于，我们不仅可以找到中国思想和伊斯兰思想的元素，而且可以找到通过耶稣会士的努力流入当代中国的新自然科学的痕迹，这使得如果没有科学史应该介入的文化背景，就很难理解工作的核心。本研究计划以《天繁行理》第三卷和第五卷为中心，试图提取出刘志不同于中国和伊斯兰思想传统的原始思想世界，这种思想世界很可能是在一些关于人体的新发现的基础上产生的，并对其思想世界的某些背景进行某种程度的考察。

It is well known that during the end of the Ming Dynasty and the beginning of the Qing Dynasty Chinese Muslims abruptly started to express themselves in the form of books written in Chinese, the most conspicuous of which was Tianfang Xingli authored by Liu Zhi. Its idiosyncrasy consists in the fact that we can find not only elements of Chinese thought and Islamic thought but vestiges of new natural sciences flowing into contemporary China through the efforts of Jesuits, which make it difficult to understand the kernel of the work without cultural contexts history of science should meddle in. Focusing the books III and V of Tianfan Xingli, this research program tried to extract Liu Zhi's original thought world differing from those of Chinese and Islamic thought traditions, which was produced, in all likelihood, on the basis of some new findings concerns the human bodies, and to pick up some kinds of backdrops of his thought world and examine them in some degree.
