Description

This scholarly collection honours the retirement of Daniel L. Overmyer, a leading authority on Chinese religious traditions. Compiled from a conference held at the University of British Columbia in September 2002, the volume features contributions from renowned academics examining Chinese religions through lived experience rather than abstract theory. The papers challenge readers to move beyond textual analysis to understand how real people practise and experience religious traditions within their cultural context. Edited by Routledge, this Monumenta Serica Monograph Series entry reflects Overmyer's influential approach to studying Chinese religious practice, offering fresh perspectives on Daoism, folk religion, and spiritual traditions across Chinese communities. Essential reading for scholars of Asian religions, Chinese studies, and those interested in how religious belief manifests in everyday life.
