They represent the cosmology of Buddhism and contain images of the Buddha, bodhisattvas, and other deities for worship, and, in associated monasteries, offer space for monks or nuns to live and practice Buddhist discipline. However, temples also provide locations for interactions between state and religion, particularly given that Buddhist teachings generally prohibit clerics from laboring and thus temples rely on the laity and secular authorities for support. Since arriving in China, Buddhism has been variously tolerated, patronized, and crushed by the power of the state. Today, the Chinese state permits religious activity only in the physical space of temples (officially known as "religious activity sites"). In The Space of Religion, Yoshiko Ashiwa and David L. Wank take readers inside the Nanputuo Temple in Xiamen City in Fujian Province of southeastern China in order to explore the relationship between Buddhism and the Chinese state. Nanputuo was a center of modernizing Buddhism in the early twentieth century and a leader of Buddhism's revival after the Cultural Revolution. Based on three decades of ethnographic and documentary research, Ashiwa and Wank tell the story of Nanputuo across a sweep of Chinese history that has seen rapid economic growth and social change. In doing so, they argue that the Chinese state and Buddhism have each adapted to the necessity of the other, and that the success of these adaptations can be seen in the way that the revival of the Buddhist temple has been inextricably intertwined with the growing Chinese market economy"-- $c Provided by publisher. 610 20 $a Nan pu tuo si (Xiamen, Xiamen Shi, China) 650 0 $a Buddhist temples $z Xiamen Shi. $z Xiamen Shi. 650 0 $a Buddhist monasteries $x History. $z China $x History. 650 6 $a Temples bouddhiques $0 (CaQQLa)201-0477567 $z Xiamen (Shi) $0 (CaQQLa)201-0477567 $z Xiamen (Shi) $0 (CaQQLa)201-0477567 610 27 $a Nan pu tuo si (Xiamen, Xiamen Shi, China) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00588891 650 7 $a Buddhist monasteries $x Reconstruction $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst02015418 650 7 $a Buddhist temples $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01727649 651 7 $a China $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206073 651 7 $a China $z Xiamen Shi $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01299004 655 7 $a History $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 700 1 $a Wank, David L., $d 1957- $e author. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Ashiwa, Yoshiko, 1957- $t Space of religion $d New York : Columbia University Press, 2023 $z 9780231552127 $w (DLC) 2022057090 830 0 $a Sheng Yen series in Chinese Buddhist studies 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231219011547.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6907420A9E3C11EE84E191EF36ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
