具体描述
For a thousand years across the length and breadth of China and beyond, people have burned paper replicas of valuable things—most often money—for the spirits of deceased family members, ancestors, and myriads of demons and divinities. Although frequently denigrated as wasteful and vulgar and at times prohibited by governing elites, today this venerable custom is as popular as ever. Burning Money explores the cultural logic of this common practice while addressing larger anthropological questions concerning the nature of value. The heart of the work integrates Chinese and Western thought and analytics to develop a theoretical framework that the author calls a “materialist aesthetics.” This includes consideration of how the burning of paper money meshes with other customs in China and around the world.
The work examines the custom in contemporary everyday life, its origins in folklore and history, as well as its role in common rituals, in the social formations of dynastic and modern times, and as a “sacrifice” in the act of consecrating the paper money before burning it. Here the author suggests a great divide between the modern means of cultural reproduction through ideology and reification, with its emphasis on nature and realism, and previous pre-capitalist means through ritual and mystification, with its emphasis on authenticity. The final chapters consider how the burning money custom has survived its encounter with the modern global system and internet technology.
Innovative and original in its interpretation of a common ritual in Chinese popular religion, Burning Money will be welcomed by scholars and students of Chinese religion as well as comparative religion specialists and anthropologists interested in contemporary social theory.

评分译者：袁剑、刘玺鸿 纸钱习俗的历史缘起 历史常常被认为是过去事件的事实上的连续，但其也是过去事件的当下叙述。这第二种或者说叙述性的层面，则基于文人墨客的书面记载。诸如纸钱习俗这样的案例中，想要在这些书面记载中抓住活生生的现实是有困难的。这一问题也困扰着人类学...

读过作者05年那篇论文，没想到居然扩写成书了。目光所及，少有的以中国烧纸钱为主题的著作。其实我自己越写越觉得混乱，“纸钱”远比我想象的要复杂。。。非常羞愧地还是写完了。
