Text and Context in the Modern History of Chinese Religions:
Redemptive Societies and Their Sacred Texts is an edited volume
(Philip Clart, David Ownby, and Wang Chien-chuan) offering eight
essays on the modern history of redemptive societies in China and
Vietnam by an international cast of scholars. The focus of the
volume is on the texts produced by the various groups, examining
questions of textual production (spirit-writing), textual
traditions (how to "modernize" traditional discourse), textual
authority (the role of texts in making a master a master), and the
distribution of texts (via China's experience of "print
capitalism"). Throughout, the goal is to explore in depth what some
scholars have called the most vital aspect of Chinese religion
during the Republican period.
