Description

Nomads on Pilgrimage examines the social history of Mongolian pilgrimages to Wutaishan, China's sacred Buddhist mountain, during the late imperial and Republican periods. This scholarly work explores how economic crisis, rising nationalism, and anticlericalism shaped Mongolian and Chinese religious practice between 1800 and 1940. Wutaishan emerged as a remarkable centre for intercultural exchange, mutual cultural borrowing, and ethnic competition during this transformative era. Drawing on diverse sources including over 340 Mongolian stone inscriptions, archival records, and visual documentation, the author reveals why Wutaishan became one of Asia's holiest pilgrimage destinations and how it functioned as a space where different communities negotiated identity, faith, and belonging. This volume contributes to Inner Asian studies by documenting the religious lives and motivations of Mongolian pilgrims across generations.

Key Features

Nomads on Pilgrimage incorporates more than 340 Mongolian stone inscriptions as primary sources, providing direct evidence of pilgrimage practices and devotional expressions across the 140-year period.

The work analyses Wutaishan as a site of intercultural exchange where Mongolian, Chinese, and Tibetan Buddhist communities interacted, borrowed practices, and competed for religious authority.

This Brill Inner Asian Library volume situates pilgrimage within the broader context of economic crisis, nationalist movements, and anticlericalism affecting Mongolia and China during 1800-1940.

The study draws on varied written and visual source materials to reconstruct why Wutaishan held such profound spiritual significance for Mongolian pilgrims across social classes and regions.

By examining pilgrimage as social history, the book illuminates religious life, ethnic identity, and transnational Buddhist networks in Inner Asia during a period of rapid change.
