A Case Study of Jining Religions in the Late Imperial and Republican Periods

Tel: 86-150-2100-6037. E-mail: [email protected] Received: March 12, 2012 Accepted: June 4, 2012 Online Published: July 1, 2012 doi:10.5539/ach.v4n2p16 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.5539/ach.v4n2p16 The final completion and publication of this article was supported by the New Century Program to Promote Excellent University Talents (no.: NECJ-10-0355). Abstract This article depicts the dynamic demonstrations of religions in late imperial and republican Jining. It argues with evidences that the open, tolerant and advanced urban circumstances and atmosphere nurtured the diversity and prosperity of formal religions in Jining in much of the Ming and Qing periods. It also argues that the same air and ethos enabled Jining to less difficultly adapt to the West-led modern epoch, with a notable result of welcoming Christianity, quite exceptional in hinterland China. Keywords: Jining, religions, urban, Grand Canal, hinterland, Christianity I. Introduction: A Special Case beyond Conventional Scholarly Images It seems a commonplace that intellectual and religious beliefs and practices in imperial Chinese inlands were conservative, which encouraged orthodoxy ideology or otherwise turned to heretic sectarianism. It is also commonplace that in the post-Opium War modern era, hinterland China, while being sluggishly appropriated into Westernized modernization, persistently resisted the penetration of Western values and institutes including Christianity. -

Inside the Kingdom
INSIDE THE KINGDOM August 2, 2017 the Chronicle Section B – 20 Pages Exhibit on Greensboro families China connections by Joseph Gresser GREENSBORO — The Greensboro Historical Society usually divides its attention between stories about the farmers and artisans who built the town and the folks who came from away to enjoy the beauty and tranquility of Caspian Lake. This summer’s exhibit at the society’s headquarters in the old Greensboro Library Building next to Willey’s Store examines a more distant object through the lens of four families that eventually called Greensboro home. “Old China Hands” looks at how those four families engaged with a distant land and gives a picture of some of that country’s most difficult years as seen through the eyes of the folks with Greensboro connections. The exhibit is dominated by a set of four long panels, each devoted to the story of one of those families, complete with photographs showing family members and places in China that were important to them. Artifacts, including Chinese clothing, trophies from sporting competitions held by Europeans in China, and other family keepsakes line the walls of the room. But perhaps the most interesting part of the exhibit is a timeline that A collection of items gathered by four Greensboro families during their time in China surrounds freestanding matches historical events in the U.S. and China panels chronicling their history there.
