A Spiritual Geography of Early Chinese Thought
Bloomsbury Academic (Verlag)
978-1-350-26217-1 (ISBN)
Demonstrating that religious beliefs in early China are both textually endorsed and ritually embodied, this book goes on to show how gods, ancestors and afterlife are philosophically salient. The summative chapter on the role of religious ritual in moral formation shows how religion forms a complex philosophical system capable of informing moral, social, and political conditions.
Kelly James Clark is Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at Ibn Haldun University, Istanbul. Justin Winslett is University Lecturer in Chinese Studies at the University of Sheffield, UK.
