Cover of E. R. Hughes & K. Hughes: Religion in China (PDF)

First published in 1950.Beginning with ancient times, this volume shows how some of the early superstitions became purified through the influence of the Confucianist philosophy, how a deep strain of mysticism came from the Taoists and how thereby a worship of ‘Heaven’ and ‘Earth’ was evolved. Besides the main streams of Confucianism and Buddhism, the introduction and development of Christianity into China is also analyzed.
