DESCRIPTION:Flyer\nIt has become increasingly acknowledged by the scholarl
 y community that Chinese Buddhism and Daoism developed as separate yet clo
 sely related traditions in medieval and early pre-modern China through a p
 rolonged interaction spanning many centuries. This inter-relationship cont
 ributed much to the formation and further developments of both two religio
 ns and impacted their respective belief systems and practices in a number 
 of significant ways. It goes without saying that simplistic notions such a
 s ‘sinification\,’ used to explain the impact of Chinese culture on in
 -coming Buddhism or that of a ‘Buddhist transformation of China’ fall 
 short of elucidating the issues at stake in this inter-religious transform
 ation\, which we for want of a better term shall refer to as ‘Buddho-Dao
 ism.’ This workshop will address a number of issues relating to this dev
 elopment\, including doctrinal concepts\, ritual practices\, religious ico
 ns\, pantheons\, literature etc. As such it features elements of both reli
 gious systems\, not only in dialogue\, but also manifesting simultaneously
  in the same material. The Buddho-Daoist exchange will be further highligh
 ted through two presentations on developments outside China proper.
