They did this through their organization in clerical lineages-their own empire-wide networks for channeling knowledge, patronage, and resources-and by controlling central temples that were nodes of local social structures. In this book, the only comprehensive social history of local Daoism during the Ming largely based on literary sources and fieldwork, Richard G. Wang delineates the interface between local organizations (such as lineages and temple networks) and central state institutions. While part 1 sets the framework for viewing Daoism as a social institution in regard to both its religious lineages and its service to the state in the bureaucratic apparatus to implement state orthodoxy, part 2 follows four cases to reveal the connections between clerical lineages and local networks. In the end, Wang illustrates how Daoism brought the cosmological order and universal salvation to local society, while at the same time granting divine sanction and political legitimacy to the state"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Taoism $x History. $z China $x History. 650 0 $a Taoist temples $z China $x History. 650 0 $a Taoism and state $z China $x History. 650 0 $a Taoists $z China $x History. 650 0 $a Social networks $z China $x History. 651 0 $a China $x History $y Ming dynasty, 1368-1644. 651 0 $a China $x Taoist influences. $x Taoist influences. 650 7 $a RELIGION / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Civilization $x Taoist influences. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01352408 650 7 $a Social networks. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01122678 650 7 $a Taoism and state. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01142937 650 7 $a Taoism $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01142935 650 7 $a Taoist temples. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01754628 650 7 $a Taoists. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01142955 651 7 $a China. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206073 648 7 $a 1368-1644 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 830 0 $a Harvard-Yenching Institute monograph series ; $v 132. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117014220.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=18D36EAC803411ED944134D030ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
