Joseph Henri-Marie de Premare(1666~1736) is a French Jesuit missionary in China from the late 17c to the early 18c. His Lishushiyi(六 書實義) represents the so-called figurism in the China Mission in that age. In the essay, Premare uses liushu(六書), the six classes of Chinese written character created by Xu Shen(許愼) and Chinese Confucian classics like Yijing(易經), to argue that the Christian Dogmas have existed in China. He insists on zhishi(指事) class, because, he thinks, seven characters of that class represents Christian dogmas of trinity and incarnation. A Chinese catholic christian Liu Ying(劉凝)`s studies on Chinese characters helps him. Figurist views on Chinese written character and Yijing were agreed neither in Premare`s age and are agreed nor today. But Premare`s concerns and studies on Chinese traditional classicism and character, as a kind of missionary accommodation, are still valid. His appropriation of Chinese scholarly tradition is a pioneering work in the Western knowledge of China, and more narrolwy, in the field of Sinology.
