SUMMARY:The Cultural Transformation of Mountains during the Six Dynasties
DESCRIPTION:\n	Wei Bin (School of History\, Wuhan University\; HYI Visiting
  Scholar)\n\n	Chair/Discussant: James Robson (Professor of East Asian Lang
 uages and Civilizations\, Harvard University)\n\n	Co-sponsored by the Fair
 bank Center for Chinese Studies\n\n\n	Mountains\, originally places for mo
 untain-god worship\, attracted the explorative interest of Buddhism\, Taoi
 sm and other cultural forces during the Six Dynasties\, as a result becomi
 ng geographic sites for the convergence of Taoist abbeys\, transcendents
 ’ relics\, Buddhist temples\, hermits’ abodes and cultic shrines. This
  formed a new cultural and living space\, while maintaining close contact 
 with the outside world of power beyond the mountains. This new cultural la
 ndscape provides essential clues for comprehending historical transformati
 ons between the Han and Tang Dynasties. This talk will discuss the topic f
 rom the following four aspects: 1) Sacrifices in mountains\; 2) The format
 ion of Buddhist and Daoist landscapes in mountains\; 3) Knowledge\, writin
 gs and literature about mountains\; 4) The relationship between mountains 
 and the outside world of power.
