The term ‘theatre’ is used here to refer broadly to various types of live performances—theatrical and non-theatrical; sacred and profane— presented in a religious setting, thus including ritual performance and oral performance. Likewise, literature in this volume broadly encompasses both written and oral literatures, including drama, poetry, hagiography, legend, mythology and prosimetric narrative or chantefable for telling and singing. The contributors to the issue draw on a wide range of materials from historical, philosophical and literary texts to field reports and archaeological finds to archived documents and local gazetteers to personal interviews and participant observations. While all the essays are collected under the theme of ‘Religion and Folk Belief in Chinese Literature and Theatre’, they differ from each other in subject matter, source material and research approach. Rich and varied as they are, these essays fall into two main categories, namely, a historical approach to religion and ritual recorded in (written and visual) texts and an integrated approach that combines historical inquiries into written and visual texts with ethnoanthropological fieldwork on religious rituals and associated performances.Religion & beliefsbicsscCheng 誠cheng 成sinceritycompletionreligionritualClassical Confucianismliteraturebaojuan (precious scrolls)telling scripturesscroll recitationchinese folklorepopular religionbuddhist narrativeChinaXiud Yax Lus Qim (Yalu wang)Miao (Hmong) ethnic grouporal performanceritual practicesorcery and witchcraftcollective memorycultural heritagestate presencetemple festivaltemple theatreJiacun Double-Fourth Temple Festivalthe Primordial Sovereign of the Morning Clouds (Bixia yuanjun)ShangdangLiaozhai zhiyiDaoismdramasSichuanwillowYuan zajushamanismlegendmetaphorChinese religionsChinese literatureMingDeng ZhimohagiographyLü DongbinXu XunSa Shoujianprint culturePei YuepoemsBuddhismmonkssocial associationMiao cultureperformance studiesperformance ethnographyindigenous studiesfolk traditionsmythologythe Queen Mother of the West (Xiwangmu)Han rhapsody (fu)Han paintingsHantomb stone reliefsthe Wuliang ShrineReligion & beliefsZhao Xiaohuanedt1296430Zhao XiaohuanothBOOK9910637780203321Religion and Folk Belief in Chinese Literature and Theatre3024065UNINA04727nam 2200829 450 991082226010332120231206223129.01-4426-9292-81-4426-8731-210.3138/9781442687318(CKB)2550000000019188(EBL)3268199(SSID)ssj0000477964(PQKBManifestationID)11269748(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000477964(PQKBWorkID)10418523(PQKB)10925722(CaPaEBR)430724(CaBNvSL)slc00224418(DE-B1597)465369(OCoLC)1013936402(OCoLC)944176753(DE-B1597)9781442687318(Au-PeEL)EBL4672533(CaPaEBR)ebr11258199(OCoLC)958514626(VaAlCD)20.500.12592/1ct63m(MiAaPQ)EBC4672533(OCoLC)635459159(MdBmJHUP)musev2_106161(MiAaPQ)EBC3268199(EXLCZ)99255000000001918820160923h20082008 uy 0engur|n|---|||||txtccrAcculturation and its discontents the Italian Jewish experience between exclusion and inclusion /edited by David N.

Tracing both the triumphs and tragedies of Jewish communities within Italy over a broad span of time, Acculturation and Its Discontents challenges conventional assumptions about assimilation and state intervention and, in the process, charts the complex process of cultural exchange that left such a distinctive imprint not only on Italian Jewry, but also on Italian society itself.This collection of rigorous and thought-provoking essays makes a major contribution to both the history of Italian culture and the cultural influence and significance of European Jews.UCLA Clark Memorial Library series ;10.JewsItalyHistoryJewsCultural assimilationItalyJewsItalySocial conditionsItalyEthnic relationsFestschriften.History.Festschriften.Electronic books.
