By the middle of the third century B.C.E. in China there were individuals who sought to become transcendents (xian)--deathless, godlike beings endowed with supernormal powers. This quest for transcendence became a major form of religious expression and helped lay the foundation on which the first Daoist religion was built. Both xian and those who aspired to this exalted status in the centuries leading up to 350 C.E. have traditionally been portrayed as secretive and hermit-like figures. This groundbreaking study offers a very different view of xian-seekers in late classical and early medieval China. It suggests that transcendence did not involve a withdrawal from society but rather should be seen as a religious role situated among other social roles and conceived in contrast to them. Robert Campany argues that the much-discussed secrecy surrounding ascetic disciplines was actually one important way in which practitioners presented themselves to others. He contends, moreover, that many adepts were not socially isolated at all but were much sought after for their power to heal the sick, divine the future, and narrate their exotic experiences. The book moves from a description of the roles of xian and xian-seekers to an account of how individuals filled these roles, whether by their own agency or by others'--or, often, by both. Campany summarizes the repertoire of features that constituted xian roles and presents a detailed example of what analyses of those cultural repertoires look like. He charts the functions of a basic dialectic in the self-presentations of adepts and examines their narratives and relations with others, including family members and officials. Finally, he looks athagiographies as attempts to persuade readers as to the identities and reputations of past individuals.
若问世间对胖子最大诅咒,胖子不能成仙,可能够得上前排了。有人就曾论证过,因为仙人中是没有肥胖的,传世文本和图像也都一致表示:仙是苗条的,轻盈的,有些文本则明确地将仙和体重轻联系起来,并嘲讽说:“肥肉是升往天界的阻碍。”(《修仙》54页;原文:There were no cor...

评分去年读过,可一点印象都没有了。今年又被assign了前两个章节,配合神仙传一起看,有些新感触。Campany 基本在用社会学/人类学的方法来研究中国古代宗教,他希望跳出对神仙传记的真假之辩,而研究其中所反映的collective mentality。由此引申,关于仙的传说故事就成了民族志式的一手材料,构成了xian-hood的repertoire. 道理都说得通,但如何在解构故事的文化元素与保持叙事的整体性之间达成平衡呢?希望看到更多文本细读式的分析。
评分社会对仙的反作用力讲的还有点意思,从这个角度走终于有点新灵感了
