Ritual and Religion in the Xunzi

SUNY series in Chinese Philosophy and Culture

by T.C. Kline (Editor)

This diverse and important collection of essays examining ritual and religion in the writings of Xunzi, a third century BCE Confucian - is the first to be published in English. As these essays reveal, Xunzi is a significant theorist of ritual and religion and this collection will go along way to bringing a neglected early Chinese thinker into the field of religious studies.
