Self description: "Unlike many Internetresources, this bibliography aims to incorporate both traditional style printed works and on-line resources. I will not provide a complete bibliography of anything that is available, but attempt to survey those works and websites that directly assist in the business of doing research on Chinese religious culture. In the same way, the user of this resource is advised to obtain complete bibliographical information (especially the full collective authorship of larger works) from the works concerned. My information here will be restricted to the run-of-the-mill information needed to find the book, journal or website in question." Description: The Website is still under construction but already provides a large amount of the most important literature and resources in Western languages as well as Chinese and Japanese. Site contents: (1) Finding Internetresources; (2) Finding books and articles (Raw bibliographies, Annotated bibliographies, Bookreviews); (3) Finding information (General introductions to Chinese religious culture, Finding information on Chinese religious culture, Introductions to Daoist traditions Research guides on Daoist traditions, Introductions to Buddhist traditions, Research guides on Buddhist traditions); (4) Words and terms: dictionaries and encyclopedias (Buddhist, Daoist, General); (5) Finding texts (Dunhuang texts, Buddhist texts, Daoist texts, Precious Scrolls); (6) Sourcebooks, anthologies, translations (General, Daoist, Buddhist); (7) Journals on Chinese religious culture; (8) On bibliographical work. _______________________________________________________ With kind regards, Hanno Lecher ([log in to unmask]) INTERNET GUIDE FOR CHINA STUDIES -- editor http://sun.sino.uni-heidelberg.de/igcs/ _______________________________________________________ To unsubscribe from this list, please send an email to: [log in to unmask] containing the following message: SIGNOFF IGCS-L
