This Week on Speaking Of Faith

Recovering Chinese Religiosities

Put the words "religion" and "China" in a sentence together, and Western imaginations may go to indifference at best, to brutal repression at worst. Yet in grand historical perspective, China is a crucible of religious and philosophical thought and practice. Anthropologist and filmmaker Mayfair Yang says that the upheavals of the 20th Century created an amnesia - in the West as in China itself - about this rich, pluralistic spiritual inheritance. She traces some of this story for us, and describes a subtle new revival of reverence and ritual.

Speaking Of Faith, Sundays from 7:00 AM to 8:00 AM on WUSF 89.7(2), your NPR Station.


Show Description and Host Information

Krista Tippett

Speaking of Faith, hosted by Krista Tippett, is public radio's weekly national conversation about belief, meaning, ethics and ideas. Speaking of Faith does not always have "religion" itself as a subject. Week after week, it grapples with themes of American life — asking how perspectives of faith might distinctively inform and illuminate our public reflection.
