@article{oai:meilib.repo.nii.ac.jp:00000138, author = {Thompson, Micheal}, journal = {比較文化, Comparative culture,the journal of Miyazaki International College}, month = {}, note = {The initial success of the Catholic mission of the Societe des missions etrangeres de Paris (MEP) in Kyushu was geographically based on Nagasaki and numerically based on the adhesion of many of the 'Kakure Kirishtan', the descendants of sixteenth century Catholics. In the 1890s the MEP tried to expand on these bases by creating new missions in southeastern Kyushu where no 'Kakure Kirishtan' could be found. This article focuses on the history of these missions especially on the contrast between Miyazaki and Amami Oshima, the 'Bread and the Jam' of the title. In Miyazaki the MEP met with little success while in Amami Oshima their success was both impressive and surprising. In describing the history of this mission a number of inter-related factors involving France, Japan, the MEP, and the Papacy are explored and evaluated. Finally, these factors are used to elaborate an explanation for the eventual collapse of the MEP mission.}, pages = {57--70}, title = {乾いたパンとジャムのように--フランス・カトリック教会の九州南東部における布教(1890〜1927年)}, volume = {11}, year = {2005} }
