The Immortal Maiden Equal to Heaven and Other Precious Scrolls from Western Gansu

Más información sobre el libro

The resurgence of Chinese popular religion since the 1980s has led to the revival of precious scrolls used in rituals and entertainment, particularly in the economically advanced Wu-dialect regions and the impoverished areas of Western Gansu. These scrolls, once suppressed, are now being performed, collected, edited, and published, highlighting their significance in China's Intangible Cultural Heritage. This revival reflects a broader cultural renaissance and the reclamation of traditional practices in contemporary society.
