Pilgrims and Sacred Sites in China

Until now, China has been scarcely represented in the burgeoning comparative literature on pilgrimage. This volume remedies that omission, discussing the interaction between pilgrims and sacred sites from the tenth century to the present. From the perspectives of literature, art, history, religion, politics, and anthropology, the essays focus on China's most famous pilgrimage mountains as well as lesser known sites.Naquin, Susan is the author of 'Pilgrims and Sacred Sites in China' with ISBN 9780520075672 and ISBN 0520075676.
