Barbara Hendrischke, a leading expert on the Taiping jing in the West, has spent twenty-five years on this magisterial translation, which includes notes that contextualize the scripture's political and religious significance. Virtually unknown to scholars until the 1970's, the Taiping jing raises the hope for salvation in a practical manner by instructing men and women how to appease heaven and satisfy earth and thereby reverse the fate that thousands of years of human wrongdoing has brought about. The scripture stems from the beginnings of the Daoist religious movement, when ideas contained in the ancient Laozi were spread with missionary fervor among the population at large. The Taiping jing demonstrates how early Chinese medieval thought arose from the breakdown of the old imperial order and replaced it with a vision of a new, more diverse and fair society that would integrate outsiders-in particular women and people of a non-Chinese background. 410 0$aDaoist classics ;$v3. 517 3 $aTaiping jing and the beginning of Daoism 606 $aTaoism$vEarly works to 1800 606 $aPhilosophy, Chinese 615 0$aTaoism 615 0$aPhilosophy, Chinese. 676 $a299.5/1482 701 $aHendrischke$b Barbara$f1940-$01038678 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910824564303321 996 $aThe scripture on great peace$94052634 997 $aUNINA
