| الملخص: | This book explores how Mount Jiuhua became the seat of Dizang Bodhisattva and evolved into a renowned Buddhist mountain during the late imperial period. The uncoordinated yet collective efforts of various interested parties shaped the dynamic interplay between tangible elements (mummies, masters, pilgrimage practices) and intangible factors (myths, popular literature), redefining and reinforcing the mountain's divine status. By incorporating previously overlooked sources, such as inscriptions, amulets, drama scripts, and "underworld passes," this study highlights the critical role of rank-and-file religious practitioners in the sacred place-making process. |
