Offering novel readings of comparatively familiar visual and textual sources and, in many cases, examining unstudied or understudied noncanonical materials, the papers collected here illuminate the roles that both local actors and individuals dwelling far beyond Mount Wutai's borders have played in its making and remaking as a holy place for more than fifteen hundred years. The work aims to contribute to our understanding of the ways that sacred geography is made and remade in new places and times"-- OP - 471 CN - BQ649.W88 T73 2021 SN - 900441987X SN - 9789004419872 SN - 9789004385429 KW - Mañjūśrī KW - Buddhism : China : Wutai Mountains : History.
