From the fifth century BC to the present and dealing with the Three
Teachings (Confucianism, Daoism, and Buddhism) as well as popular
religion, this introduction to the eight-volume Early and Modern
Chinese Religion explores key ideas and events in four periods of
paradigm shift in the intertwined histories of Chinese religion,
politics, and culture. It shows how, in the Chinese church-state,
elite processes of rationalization, interiorization, and
secularization are at work in every period of major change and how
popular religion gradually emerges to a position of dominance by
means of a long history of at once resisting, adapting to, and
collaborating with elite-driven change. Topics covered include
ritual, scripture, philosophy, state policy, medicine, sacred
geography, gender, and the economy. It also serves as the basis for
an on-line Coursera course.
