Divination And Sacrifice In Song Neo-Confucianism, Joseph A. Adler Nov 2015

Divination And Sacrifice In Song Neo-Confucianism, Joseph A. Adler

Joseph Adler

The earliest known form of Chinese religion is the ritual dyad of divination and sacrifice practiced by the rulers of the Shang Dynasty (fourteenth to eleventh centuries b.c.e.).
