Evidence from Shang oracle bones to memorials submitted to Western Han emperors attests to a long-lasting debate in early China over the proper relationship between humans and gods. One pole of the debate saw the human and divine realms as separate and agonistic and encouraged divination to determine the will of the gods and sacrifices to appease and influence them. The opposite pole saw the two realms as related and claimed that humans could achieve divinity and thus control the cosmos. This wide-ranging book reconstructs this debate and places within their contemporary contexts the rival claims concerning the nature of the cosmos and the spirits, the proper demarcation between the human and the divine realms, and the types of power that humans and spirits can exercise. It is often claimed that the worldview of early China was unproblematically monistic and that hence China had avoided the tensions between gods and humans found in the West. By treating the issues of cosmology, sacrifice, and self-divinization in a historical and comparative framework that attends to the contemporary significance of specific arguments, Michael J. Puett shows that the basic cosmological assumptions of ancient China were the subject of far more debate than is generally thought.
Michael Puett is a professor in ancient Chinese history at Havard University.
最近重读了一遍,比大三时多懂了些~
评分今作者来奥大讲座,碰巧我读过他两本书,感觉还是在对“中国研究对世界社科能做的贡献”里有贡献。前几日丹麦某年轻老师讲座讲中国仪式中关于“sincerity”的议论就是建立在Puett对中国仪式注重“形式”的研究上。我觉得这对文化并接之类的研究都很有助益。去讲座了~
