Intellectual History of Key Concepts
The three-volume project 'Concepts and Methods for the Study of Chinese Religions' is a timely review of the history of the study of Chinese religions, reconsiders the present state of analytical and methodological theories, and initiates a new chapter in the methodology of the field itself. The three volumes raise interdisciplinary and cross-tradition debates, and engage methodologies for the study of East Asian religions with Western voices in …

Buddhist building and the Buddhist revival in the work of Holmes Welch
Like much of Holmes Welch’s work, the chapter ‘Building and Publishing’ in his The Buddhist Revival in China (1968) is a brief but evocative treatment of a vast topic. The book examines the history of Buddhism in China from the 1860s to 1949, and in this particular chapter he covers two main subject areas: the restoration and building of Buddhist monasteries, and the publishing and distribution of Buddhist printed materials. In this article I wil…
A Revolution of Ink
Religious Publishing and Print Culture in Modern China
Scholarly interest in print culture and in the study of religion in modern China has increased in recent years, propelled by maturing approaches to the study of cultural history and by a growing recognition that both were important elements of China's recent past. The influence of China in the contemporary world continues to expand, and with it has come an urgent need to understand the processes by which its modern history was made. Issues of rel…
Timothy Richard, World Religion, and Reading Christianity in Buddhist Garb
This article examines some of the published works of the missionary Timothy Richard (1845 - 1919), and analyzes how his mission experience played a foundational role in his study of religion. It argues that his work and his approach to Chinese religions challenged established views of the relationships between the world religions held by his contemporaries. The latter section focuses on his studies of Mahāyāna Buddhism and how they sought a famil…
The Buddhist Nationalism of Dai Jitao
Superstitious Regimes
Embedding Journalists in Military Combat Units
This investigation probed whether embedded journalist coverage of the first days of the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq produced print news coverage that was either more decontextualized inform or more favorable in tone. Embedded news coverage of the first days of Operation “Iraqi Freedom” was compared to nonembedded, so-called “unilateral” coverage; and print coverage of “Iraqi Freedom” was compared with the first days of U.S. ground operations in Op…
III. Transcending the Beardsleyans
Banes and Carroll on Defining Dance
In a relatively well-known article, Monroe Beardsley defines dance as a sequence of motions that is designed primarily for the pleasure given through either rhythm or expressiveness (1). In reply, Sally Banes and Noël Carroll graciously, but firmly, reject Beardsley's account by claiming that he further requires a “superfluity of expressiveness” and by arguing that this feature is neither necessary nor sufficient for dance (2). Their reasons for …
