Description

Explore the historical and critical aspects of Chinese Buddhism with this scholarly volume from Routledge. Originally written in 1922, this work provides a deep look into the religious landscape of China, covering Buddhism alongside Taoism and Confucianism.

The text highlights how Chinese Buddhists sought immortality through Northern Doctrines, creating a foundation that challenged Confucian followers and provided the energy needed to establish new schools of thought. As Volume VI of the Oriental series, this book offers a descriptive perspective on the historical evolution of these traditions.
