Description
This book contextualizes the “emperor worship” tradition in Imperial China since the late 5th century. Based on solid historical sources and with impressive analysis and vivid historical narrative, Yi-Fang Liao explores what Chinese emperors prayed for during official rituals and investigates how these inheritors strove to create a spatiotemporal connection with royal ancestors.
