About the Project

The Bibliotheca Diocesis Macaonensis is a comprehensive research bibliography about the History of the Diocese of Macau and the Catholic Missions in Asia. Altough it is a specialized bibliography, we can hardly disconnect the Political, Social and Cultural History of Macau, at least not until the handover in 1999, from the History of the Diocese, therefore this database can also be a great support to all kinds of historical research projects about Macau, the East-West relations and the History of Christian missions.

Objective

To be an essential research database for the study of the history of the Diocese of Macau and Catholic missionary work in Asia.
