开创性地将士人对佛教的态度放在“唐宋变革”的大框架去考察,研究了唐宋士人崇佛的根本性不同,并提出了宋代士人"worldly devotion"的概念,非常醍醐灌顶了。一向觉得预设历代士大夫都多少对佛教有好感,受佛教影响,只是根据个人情况好感度不同,影响程度不同,然后去搜寻与某个特定人物相关的资料,罗列一通史料的研究方法并不能给我们真正的启发。历史之所以重要便在于每个微小的时间和空间事实上都发生着令人恐怖的巨变,寻求这些矛盾、变化的合理解释是历史工作者的重要任务之一。

The intense piety of late T'ang essays on Buddhism by literati has helped earn the T'ang its title of the "golden age of Chinese Buddhism." In contrast, the Sung is often seen as an age in which the literati distanced themselves from Buddhism. This study of Sung devotional texts shows, however, that many literati participated in intra-Buddhist debates. Others were drawn to Buddhism because of its power, which found expression and reinforcement in its ties with the state. For some, monasteries were extravagant houses of worship that reflected the corruption of the age; for others, the sacrifice and industry demanded by such projects were exemplars worthy of emulation. Finally, Buddhist temples could evoke highly personal feelings of filial piety and nostalgia.
This book demonstrates that representations of Buddhism by lay people underwent a major change during the T'ang-Sung transition. These changes built on basic transformations within the Buddhist and classicist traditions and sometimes resulted in the use of Buddhism and Buddhist temples as frames of reference to evaluate aspects of lay society. Buddhism, far from being pushed to the margins of Chinese culture, became even more a part of everyday elite Chinese life.
