Chinese Popular Religion in Text and Acts PDF
Edited by Chao Shin-yi Chao
Part of the Religion and Society in Asia series
Description
This volume explores practices and experiences in Chinese popular religion.
The research adds new materials and new approaches to well-known worships such as the cults of doomsday, underworld, and Lord Guan on the one hand, and draws attention to under-the-radar deities and holy figures hiding in the mountainous countryside or among the urban crowd.
While this book centers on Chinese popular religion, it will be of use to non-China scholars in folklore, religious art, and ritual studies as well as China scholars in popular culture from late-medieval to contemporary times.
