The King's Harvest
As the scale of the global biodiversity crisis percolates into the popular consciousness, there remains a tacit assumption that the sixth mass extinction event in our planet's history is an inadvertent biproduct of certain human activities. Brian Lander's environmental history of early China drives home the point that, far from an unintended consequence, simplifying ecologies was the goal of the consolidating political forms that coalesced into t…

Establishing a Literati Spirit-Writing Altar in Early Qing Suzhou
In recent years the Suzhou literatus Peng Dingqiu (1645-1719) has attracted scholarly attention as a figure embodying the rich diversity of elite religiosity in the early Qing dynasty Yangzi delta. The present article employs Peng Dingqiu’s previously neglected manuscript autobiography Shijiang gong nianpu to hone in on a prophecy he claimed to have received in 1674 of his two-fold optimus success in 1676. It provides detail on the social convent…
Guan Yu
Guan Yu is one of the most pervasive deities of the Chinese cultural realm. Burly, glowering, and often armed with a halberd, it is no accident that nineteenth-century Protestant missionaries dubbed him ‘the God of War’. His icon can serve as the Sinitic corollary of the belligerent American ‘Don’t Tread on Me’ flag, as with the 2017 erection of a 100-foot Guan Yu statue by a Chinese community in Indonesia in response to ethno-religious tensions.…
Demonic Warfare
The Literati-Official Victimization Narrative
This article describes the Confucian cycle of apotheosis in which deceased sages and worthies served as a model for the living who in turn aspired to become paragons for future generations, thereby achieving a form of immortality. It explores the way in which victimhood was strategically employed to perpetuate power relations beneficial to local landowners through a case study of support over a hundred and fifty year period by a major familial li…
Desiderata for the Principles of Compilation of a Canon of Buddhism and Medicine
“Buddhist medicine” is a neologism that first took root in the mid-twentieth century and has been gaining traction over the last few decades. While specialists treat this phrase as a heuristic device best used with caution, the 100-volume compendium collection Complete Works of Chinese Buddhist Medicine and Pharmacopeia ( Zhongguo Fojiao yiyao quanshu 中國佛教醫藥全書, 2011) is a concretization of vague terminology into an actual body of works. The prese…
