Official course description:
Seminar 1 (“Aspects of China’s Religious History: Chinese Popular Religion from Antiquity to the Qing Period”) deals with the historical development of Chinese popular religion, espe-cially from the Song period (10th–13th c.) onwards. In addition to exploring specific cultural and socio-historical contexts and developments, we will also deal with questions of method-ology in historical research of popular religiosity. For this purpose, we will include compara-tive perspectives from the study of popular religiosity in medieval and early modern Europe.

Target Audience
The module is intended primarily for students enrolled in the MA programme in Chinese Studies, but it is also open to other interested students, in particular the following two groups:
1) MA and doctoral students of other disciplines: If desired, only one of the two semi-nars can be attended, but in this case no credit points can be earned.
2) Students in the Global Studies MA programme: Either seminar component can be cho-sen as part of the module “Regions in Globalization Processes: Asia and Middle East” (06-008-GS-0830).
