This volume explores practices and experiences in Chinese popular
religion. The research adds new materials and new approaches to
well-known worships such as the cults of doomsday, underworld, and
Lord Guan on the one hand, and draws attention to under-the-radar
deities and holy figures hiding in the mountainous countryside or
among the urban crowd. While this book centers on Chinese popular
religion, it will be of use to non-China scholars in folklore,
religious art, and ritual studies as well as China scholars in
popular culture from late-medieval to contemporary times.
