Ghosts and Religious Life in Early China

Beschreibung

The idea of ghost is more than an enduring source of imagination, fear, and even entertainment in human society. It is an alternative key to deconstruct the nature and character of a society. Mu-chou Poos explores the ghosts of ancient China, the ideas that they nurtured, and their cultural role.
