520    $a "Refiguring East Asian Religious Art consists of twelve chapters organized in four sections, titled "Death of the Buddha and Buddhist Icons," "Kinship and Commemoration," "Filial Piety and Politics," and "Constructing Ritual Space." Instead of designating self-contained entities, these subtitles point to four general themes of the volume, around which the authors address interrelated issues from different perspectives. Co-editors Paul Copp and Wu Hung have brought together these essays (richly illustrated with images and photos) by leading scholars to compose an outstanding text. This book reflects on the roles that the integration and interpenetration of Buddhist devotion and ancestor veneration played in creating images, objects, and architectural forms in premodern East Asia. These reflections are occasioned by specific historical cases, not motivated by abstract theoretical agendas. The case analyses, in turn, revolve in various degrees around the phenomenon and concept of death, whether the passing of the Buddha, the departure of family members, or the destruction of religious icons"-- $c Provided by publisher.
