DuBois, Thomas David, 1969- Religion and the making of modern east Asia [electronic resource] / Thomas David DuBois. Cambridge ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2011. xii, 259 p. : ill., maps. New approaches to Asian history ; 8 Includes bibliographical references and index. 1. In the beginning : religion and history -- 2. Ming China : the fourteenth century's new world order -- 3. The Buddha and the shogun in sixteenth-century Japan -- 4. Opportunities lost : the failure of Christianity, 1550-1750 -- 5. Buddhism : incarnations and reincarnations -- 6. Apocalypse now -- 7. Out of the twilight : religion and the late nineteenth century -- 8. Into the abyss : religion and the road to disaster during the early twentieth century -- 9. Brave new world : religion in the reinvention of postwar Asia -- 10. The globalization of Asian religion. "Religion and religious ideas have played a fundamental role in the shaping of Asian history, society, and cultural practices. In this engaging and informative book, Thomas David DuBois sets out to explain how religious traditions and philosophies in China and Japan have evolved and intersected since the birth of Confucianism in China and the arrival of Buddhism in Japan. Crossing a broad terrain from Tokyo to Tibet, the book concentrates on the post-fourteenth century, when the long-lasting political dynasties that transformed the political, social, and economic institutions of both countries came into being. It is these connections that the author is keen to highlight, and he does so to effect by using key moments, such as the Taiping Uprising and the Boxer Rebellion, to underscore the importance of religion in transforming the course of Asian history. Contemporary chapters reflect on the wartime deification of the Japanese emperor, Marxism as religion, and the persecution of the Dalai Lama"-- Provided by publisher. Electronic reproduction.
