A long-awaited textbook that introduces the major schools,
teachings, and practices of Daoism, this work presents a
chronological survey that is thematically divided into four parts:
Ancient Thought, Religious Communities, Spiritual Practices, and
Modernity. The work offers an integrated vision of the Daoist
tradition in its historical and cultural context, establishing
connections with relevant information on Confucianism, Chinese
Buddhism, popular religion, and political developments. It also
places Daoism into a larger theoretical and comparative framework,
relating it to mysticism, millenarianism, forms of religious
organization, ritual, meditation, and modernity. The book makes
ample use of original materials and provides references to further
readings and original sources in translation. It is a powerful
resource for teaching and studying alike.
