Way and Byway: Taoism, Local Religion, and Models of Divinity in Sung and Modern China

Using a combination of Sung sources and modern ethnography, this text examines the questions: were Chinese gods celestial officials, governing the fate and fortunes of their worshippers; or were they personal beings, offering protection in exchange for reverence and sacrifice.
