La religion des Chinois
Author: Marcel Granet
Publisher: Editions Albin Michel
ISBN: 9782226099624
Category : China
Languages : fr
Pages : 245
Book Description
Rares sont les études d'histoire des religions qui demeurent pertinentes après plusieurs décennies. Tel est le cas de cet ouvrage du grand sinologue Marcel Granet, qui, bien avant la révolution communiste, sut s'élever au niveau des longs cycles pour analyser les différentes strates historiques de la spiritualité chinoise. Dans un esprit à la fois synthétique et précis, l'auteur de La Pensée chinois et de La Civilisation chinoise décrit la religion primitive de la paysannerie, puis les cultes de la Chine féodale, les structures de la religion qu'il appelle " officielle " - celle des lettrés de l'Empire, inspirée des enseignements de Confucius -, enfin le taoïsme et le bouddhisme chinois, qui s'entremêlent en un syncrétisme original. Un " classique " de l'orientalisme, nourri d'érudition et d'esprit humaniste.

Gendering Chinese Religion
Author: Jinhua Jia
Publisher: State University of New York Press
ISBN: 1438453094
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 312
Book Description
Gendering Chinese Religion marks the emergence of a subfield on women, gender, and religion in China studies. Ranging from the medieval period to the present day, this volume departs from the conventional and often male-centered categorization of Chinese religions into Confucianism, Buddhism, Daoism, and popular religion. It makes two compelling arguments. First, Chinese women have deployed specific religious ideas and rituals to empower themselves in various social contexts. Second, gendered perceptions and representations of Chinese religions have been indispensable to the historical and contemporary construction of social and political power. The contributors use innovative ways of discovering and applying a rich variety of sources, many previously ignored by scholars. While each of the chapters in this interdisciplinary work represents a distinct perspective, together they form a coherent dialogue about the historical importance, intellectual possibilities, and methodological protocols of this new subfield.

Money as God?
Author: Jürgen von Hagen
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 1139916815
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 469
Book Description
The nature of money and its impact on society has long interested scholars of economics, history, philosophy, law, and theology alike, and the recent financial crisis has moved these issues to the forefront of current public debate. In this study, authors from a range of backgrounds provide a unified examination of the nature and the purpose of money. Chapters cover the economic and social foundations of money; the historical origins of money in ancient Greece, China, the ancient Middle East, and medieval Europe; problems of justice connected to the use of money in legal systems and legal settlements, with examples both from ancient history and today; and theological aspects of monetary and market exchange. This stimulating interdisciplinary book, with its nontechnical and lively discussion, will appeal to a global readership working in the interfaces of economics, law and religion.

From housewives to students and high-ranking officials, people from all social backgrounds in China and Taiwan visit fate calculation masters to learn about their destiny.
