Thesis (Ph.D.)--Princeton University, 1990.

My dissertation is about plague festivals held throughout the province of Chekiang in late imperial China. Such festivals were usually staged during the summer months, and culminated in the expulsion of the demons responsible for epidemics. The focus of the dissertation is on the different people who supported these festivals, and their motives for doing so.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a My dissertation is about plague festivals held throughout the province of Chekiang in late imperial China. Such festivals were usually staged during the summer months, and culminated in the expulsion of the demons responsible for epidemics. The focus of the dissertation is on the different people who supported these festivals, and their motives for doing so.
520 $a I have chosen the cult and festival of the deity Marshall Wen as the case study for this dissertation. Marshall Wen's cult arose in Chekiang during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries and was supported by people representing all levels of Chinese society, including Taoist priests, scholar-officials, and merchants. While Taoist priests appear to have been behind the founding of many of Wen's early temples, it was the support of the later two groups which proved critical in stimulating the cult's growth.
520 $a The overriding concern of this dissertation is to explore the influence of social class on an individual's beliefs and practices. The evidence assembled does indicate that class could shape belief in a deity or participation in a festival. At the same time, however, beliefs and practices cannot be solely classified by class due to social mobility and the extensive interaction between people of different classes in late imperial China.
