"臺灣學界對教會史研究之關注已有相當歷史，然其成果多著重最早來臺傳教的道明會、最早來華傳教的方濟會，或最負盛名的耶穌會，一般對聖言會較為陌生。惟筆者曾投入義和團課題之研究，對該修會在中國華北之發展頗感興趣，且廿一世紀以來，相關義和團課題之研究方向已與昔日之強調政治、軍事、外交角度，或著重義和團與秘密社會之關連性已大不相同，實轉而偏向社會文化史領域或中外文化交流視野下之探究，因此本研究計畫嘗試對該修會在華傳教涉及之文化交流面像予以觀察，特別關注傳教士部分，尤其是外籍傳教士的投入福傳事業、國籍傳教士的培養育成等課題。蓋聖言會於1875 年由聖楊生神父創立於荷蘭史泰爾村，1879 年即有安治泰與福若瑟兩名傳教士至華，經由香港而於1882 年抵達山東陽穀縣坡里莊，開啟聖言會在中國的傳教事業，此後傳教區域陸續擴及甘肅、河南、新疆、青海、北京等地，直至1949 年後，因中共政權建立，教會勢力被迫離開中國為止，該修會派遣至華服務之神父及修士多達500 人，並培育出華籍神職人員100 餘名，而在長達近七十年的傳教期間，該修會在中國華北發展出哪些社會服務事業、遭遇到何種實務困境或文化衝突，又是如何化解這些危機與困難的，此乃筆者甚感好奇者，亦本研究計畫之關注重點。又本研究計畫主要依據之原始資料包括：聖言會編寫出該修會至華傳教的外籍傳教士與國籍傳教士（含神父與修士）700 多人之名錄、聖言會荷蘭總會院與至山東服務傳教士間之書信、聖言會至河南服務的傳教士與美國會院間之各式教務報告書等，並欲配合其他一、二手史料，對該課題予以分析探究。""Despite the fact that Taiwan’s academics have been researching the church history for quite some time, the effort had long been focused on the Dominicans, which came to Taiwan first, the Franciscan that started preaching in China first or the most renowned Society of Jesus and the Divine Word Missionaries was little known to the public. As I was part of the study of the Boxers, the activities of the Divine Word Missionaries in northern China has been an interesting issue to me. On the other hand, starting the 21st Century, the researches on the Boxer took a new direction, which is quite different from the points of view highlighted by political, military, diplomatic or even the Boxer’s association with secret society in the past; instead, researches of social, cultural, historic issues or even exchanges of international cultures prevail. In this study, new remarks on the preaching of the church in northern China involving cultural exchanges are incorporated with special attentions to missionaries, particularly evangelization by foreign missionaries and training of local missionaries among other issues. Founded in 1875 by Fr. Arnold Janssen in Steyl, the Netherlands, the Divine Word Missionaries had 2 evangelists, Fr. Anzer Johann and Fr. Josef Freinademetz to China in 1879. They arrived at Po Li Zhuang, Yanggu County, Shandong Province through Hong Kong in 1882 starting the preaching of the church in China. From then on, the evangelization covered Henan, Gansu, Xinjiang, Qinghai Provinces and Beijing among other places. And after 1949, when the Chinese Communists forced the church out of China, the Divine Word Missionaries had as many as 500 and plus fathers and brothers in addition to some 100 Chinese clergies trained in China. I am quite interested in knowing the social service activities, the operational difficulties or cultural conflicts they had gone through during almost 70-year evangelization waged by the church in northern China as well as the ways they solved the crises and the problems there, which are the key issues in this research. The original resources that helped make this study possible are: the lists of the 700-and-plus foreign missionaries and local missionaries (including fathers and brothers) working in China, correspondence between the Divine Word Missionaries Netherlands headquarters and the missionaries serving in Shandong, operation reports between the Divine Word preachers working in Henan and American Province plus other first and second-hand documents for analysis and remarks to the study theme."
