In this illuminating study of a vital but long overlooked aspect of Chinese religious life, Jimmy Yu reveals that in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, self-inflicted violence was an essential and sanctioned part of Chinese culture. He examines a wide range of practices, including blood writing, filial body-slicing, chastity mutilations and suicides, ritual exposure, and self-immolation, arguing that each practice was public, scripted, and a signal of cultural expectations. Individuals engaged in acts of self-inflicted violence to exercise power and to affect society, by articulating moral values, reinstituting order, forging new social relations, and protecting against the threat of moral ambiguity. Self-inflicted violence was intelligible both to the person doing the act and to those who viewed and interpreted it, regardless of the various religions of the period: Buddhism, Daoism, Confucianism, and other religions. This book is a groundbreaking contribution to scholarship on bodily practices in late imperial China, challenging preconceived ideas about analytic categories of religion, culture, and ritual in the study of Chinese religions.

I don't see what is so religious about the filial body slicing in his rendering. The reading of Vinaya narrative is sadly careless. "The plot is basically the same", well, many stories are basically the same if you just look at the plot.
评分集大成的精簡作品
评分一本選題特彆好的好書, 敢於直言自己不同於主流學界的觀點。雖然有些地方論證跳躍性大，有很多點都有啓發性.

评分非常棒，填補瞭很多學術上的空缺。在深究佛道宗教性影響時略有不足。在討論比如說割股的傳統源起時略有牽強。
