Description

Based on thirty years of fieldwork conducted in collaboration with local authors, this scholarly work explores the central role of religious practices in pre-1949 Chinese society. The book examines how geomancy and the festival calendar shaped sacred time and space within the villages and towns of four provinces in Southeast China. Readers will find detailed accounts of the late imperial construction of large lineages and village alliances formed around central temples and deities. Following the author's previous work, China, a Religious State, this volume provides a deep look into the structures of China as a religious society. It serves as a vital resource for those studying Taoism and the historical organization of Chinese social life.
