Description

Explore the social history of Mongolian pilgrimages to Wutaishan during the late imperial and Republican eras. This scholarly work examines how this sacred Buddhist mountain served as a site for intercultural exchange and competition between ethnic groups during a time of economic crisis, rising nationalism, and anticlericalism in Mongolia and China. By analyzing a wide range of written and visual sources, this book provides a detailed look at the motivations and methods behind these journeys. It stands as a significant contribution to the study of Inner Asian history, offering a deep look into the religious and social dynamics of the period.
