| Abstract | Francesca Tarocco’s The Cultural Practices of Chinese Modernity is a study of Buddhist print and musical culture in China in the Republican period (1911-1949). It attempts to provide a much needed corrective to imbal-ances in the treatment of modern Chinese Buddhism by both historians of China and scholars of Buddhism. The former often take elites of the Republican period to be interested only in nationalism and revolution and assume that Buddhism, having nothing to add to these discourses, was simply stagnant. Against such views, Tarocco argues that Buddhism was in fact more resilient than these scholars assume and that elites were interested in an array of “Buddhist cultural practices” in addition to nation and revolution. |
