About this product

Product Information

This groundbreaking study will intrigue anyone interested in Confucianism. It shows how visual images and literary production enabled the creation of a shrine for Confucius's robe and cap, allegedly buried 1000 years after his death on the outskirts of modern Shanghai, and now suppressed.

Reviews
'Students of Chinese Buddhism have over recent years written pages upon pages about the movement of relics and the creation of new sacred sites, so the news that these phenomena may now be traced within the Confucian tradition too is exciting indeed. Even more intriguing is the revelation that for all the attention now paid once more to Confucius in China, the site at the heart of this startlingly original study has been abandoned. Is it time for a more nuanced view of Confucianism and modernity?' T. H. Barrett, (Professor Emeritus, SOAS, University of London), author of The Woman Who Discovered Printing

Item was delivered as advertised however it was not delivered in a box which allowed it to receive some minor damage. Book was in 2 very durable form fitted vinyl/plastic bags which would have been great had then been placed in a box to protect it. Seller was very easy to discuss issue with and the damage is slight. I would buy again from this seller.

Not standard size, used; priced like new standard size. Seller refused to pay return shipping for not-standard item, not noted in listing. I learned not to buy a book without a listed size; could be anything.
