Comment un ancien moine cistercien, prieur de l'abbaye de Boquen, dont la contestation puis la démission avait défrayé la chronique dans les années 60 et 70, peut-il se retrouver à fonder, en Chine, une auberge taoïste au flanc d'une montagne sacrée ? Les circonstances de la vie y sont certes pour quelque chose, mais tout se passe comme si Bernard Besret, éternel pèlerin de l'absolu, avait retrouvé à travers la sagesse chinoise la patrie spirituelle qu'il avait toujours cherchée.Voici donc les chroniques taoïstes de Bernard Besret : elles nous parlent de la vie quotidienne en Chine, de son propre parcours, de celui d'un ancêtre lointain qui fut jadis évêque en Chine ; elles nous invitent aussi à méditer sur le sens du temps, du corps, du rapport au cosmos... Autant de thèmes qui, au fil d'une plume alerte, nous interrogent sur notre propre vie, et nous enrichissent de connaissances sur cette « étrangeté » qu'est la Chine

From the fifth century BC to the present and dealing with the Three Teachings (Confucianism, Daoism, and Buddhism) as well as popular religion, this introduction to the eight-volume Early and Modern Chinese Religion explores key ideas and events in four periods of paradigm shift in the intertwined histories of Chinese religion, politics, and culture. It shows how, in the Chinese church-state, elite processes of rationalization, interiorization, and secularization are at work in every period of major change and how popular religion gradually emerges to a position of dominance by means of a long history of at once resisting, adapting to, and collaborating with elite-driven change. Topics covered include ritual, scripture, philosophy, state policy, medicine, sacred geography, gender, and the economy. It also serves as the basis for an on-line Coursera course.

The Missionary's Curse tells the story of a Chinese village that has been Catholic since the seventeenth century, drawing direct connections between its history, the globalizing church, and the nation. Harrison recounts the popular folk tales of merchants and peasants who once adopted Catholic rituals and teachings for their own purposes, only to find themselves in conflict with the orthodoxy of Franciscan missionaries arriving from Italy. The village's long religious history, combined with the similarities between Chinese folk religion and Italian Catholicism, forces us to rethink the extreme violence committed in the area during the Boxer Uprising. The author also follows nineteenth century Chinese priests who campaigned against missionary control, up through the founding of the official church by the Communist Party in the 1950's. Harrison's in-depth study provides a rare insight into villager experiences during the Socialist Education Movement and Cultural Revolution, as well as the growth of Christianity in China in recent years. She makes the compelling argument that Catholic practice in the village, rather than adopting Chinese forms in a gradual process of acculturation, has in fact become increasingly similar to those of Catholics in other parts of the world.
