1035年，在阿尔卑斯山最古老的茹山山口，蒙托内的伯纳德修建了一所客栈，它由一个牧师团管理，为过山的行人提供一方落脚之地。16世纪时，这所客栈和山口取名圣伯纳德，而牧师们饲养的一种大犬，也以这位山民和登山保护圣人的名字命名，即著名的圣伯纳犬。

1933年至1952年，大圣伯纳德修会四次派遣传教士前往云南传教。从北到南，从盐井到维西，他们的活动范围覆盖了怒江、澜沧江和金沙江这三江之间的地区。在这里，三条大江被平均海拔超过4500米的大山隔开，它们由北向南平行并流，成为世上独一无二的奇观。

二十年间，圣伯纳德牧师们接管了当地法国传教士的教区、修建山中简舍、建造客栈、也开办了包括花珞巴见习修士学校在内的很多学校，在当时人迹罕至的他乡雪山，牧师们在努力通过实践传播其信仰的同时，也成为该地区民族、宗教和风俗习惯的见证人。

这些见证构成了今天的展览。数十年来，这批照片被尘封在瑞士马尔蒂尼大圣伯纳德修会档案馆中。直到最近，在意大利当代中国高级研究中心的支持下，该中心学者雷雅经过细致考证，才使它们重见天日。展览中的大量图片和两部电影素材旨在向我们展示一个特定时期、特定区域中的人的故事，鲜为人知但又引人入胜。

INTRODUCTION

In 1035, Saint Bernard of Menthon built a hospice on the Mont Joux peak, the most ancient pass through theAlps. The hospice was run by a congregation of canons, with the aim of assisting mountain travellers and providing shelter.

In the 16th century the hospice, together with the pass, were named Great Saint Bernard. The hospice’s fame was also due to the dogs used in mountain rescues, named after this patron saint of mountaineers and climbers.

Between 1933 and 1952, the canons of the Great Saint Bernard sent four missions toYunnanprovince. The area extends from north to south, confined between the natural barriers of the Yangtze river, the Salween river and theMekongriver, from Yanjing (in Tibetan known as Yerkalo) to Weixi.The views offered by the three rivers, separated by mountains reaching heights of more than 4,500 meters, are unique.

During the mission’s twenty years the canons took over the French Catholic fathers’ mission stations. They built a shelter, and began the construction of a hospice on thepeakofLatsa, opening many schools, and in particular Hualuoba school.Most notably, the congregation of canons was able to enter an almost impenetrable universe of diverse ethnicities, religions, customs and traditions.

This exhibition is the result of extensive research, financed by CASCC (Center for Advanced Studies on Contemporary China)andundertaken patiently and meticulously by a centre researcher, Lea Glarey. Ms. Glarey literally dug into the Great Saint Bernard of Martigny Canon’s archives and discovered ample material, with extraordinarydocumentativeand anthropological value. The many photos and two videos presented here serve as the mirror for the fascinating yet unexplored histories of those individuals that lived during that era.
