Transforming the Void Embryological Discourse and Reproductive Imagery in East Asian Religions - China 00-06
Anna Andreeva & Dominic Steavu (editors)
Transforming the Void: Embryological Discourse and Reproductive Imagery in East Asian Religions considers paths to self-cultivation and salvation that arc patterned on human embryological development or procreative imagery in the religions of China and Japan.
Focusing on Taoism, Esoteric Buddhism, Shinto, Shugcndo, and local religious traditions, the contributors to the volume provide new insight into how the body’s generative processes arc harnessed as powerful metaphors for spiritual attainment.
This volume offers an in-depth examination of the religious dimensions of embryology and reproductive imagery, topics that have been hitherto solely approached through the lens of the history of medicine.
