《宝卷:16至17世纪中国宗教经卷导论》介绍和探讨了明代和清代初期中国各民间宗教教派撰写的各类书籍文本的内容和结构。这些书籍通称为宝卷。16世纪和17世纪是这些文本的形成时期，其中包括关于教义和仪式的训导，据信都是神透露给教派教祖的，因此被认定为是宗教经卷。这些宝卷不仅体现了中等文化水平的宗教领袖的想象力和精神，而且宝卷本身无论是作为中国宗教史的一个方面，还是作为中国社会史的文献资料，都具有重要的参考价值。

宗教学这个学科是19世纪中叶开始在欧洲建立起来的。经过泰勒和弗雷泽、弗洛伊德、马克思、伊利亚德、普里查德、格尔兹等学者的努力，其理论不断完善，方法不断更新，形成了一门系统的科学。

本书不仅阐述了历史上各种宗教现象的发展过程，更在空间上揭示宗教的结构以及宗教对于人类的意义。
第1卷 从石器时代到厄琉西斯秘仪
第2卷 从乔达摩·悉达多到基督教的胜利
第3卷 从穆罕默德到宗教改革

《边际的共融--全球地域视角下的中国城市基督教研究》:本书主要从全球地域化的角度，探讨了中国当代基督教发展的新特点，新趋势。书中对上海、泰安、天水、温州四地的基督教堂的历史演变和现今状况做了深入细致的田野调查，依据大量数据和案例试图说明基督教做为一种普世宗教，只有与当地文化相协调、相变化、相改造，变成为一种有当地文化特色的宗教，才可能落地生根并获得发展。

Elverskog has produced, for the very first time, a detailed account of the long-term interaction of Buddhism and Islam that should be welcomed by all students of Eurasian history. His approach to this issue is informed, balanced, and insightful. He understands that it is important to recognize the diversity within both religions, and that their encounters were not clashes between monolithic belief systems. Their relationship ran the gamut between religious violence and fanaticism to cultural exchange and tolerance.—Thomas T. Allsen, author of The Royal Hunt in Eurasian History
This is the most thorough treatment I have seen of the historical relationship between Buddhism and Islam. Elverskog skillfully and often entertainingly corrects many longstanding stereotypes about both religions, and richly demonstrates the complexity of their historical interaction with each other. This book is thoughtful, its arguments well supported, and its style very accessible. —Richard Foltz, author of Religions of the Silk Road
In the contemporary world the meeting of Buddhism and Islam is most often imagined as one of violent confrontation. Indeed, the Taliban's destruction of the Bamiyan Buddhas in 2001 seemed not only to reenact the infamous Muslim destruction of Nalanda monastery in the thirteenth century but also to reaffirm the stereotypes of Buddhism as a peaceful, rational philosophy and Islam as an inherently violent and irrational religion. But if Buddhist-Muslim history was simply repeated instances of Muslim militants attacking representations of the Buddha, how had the Bamiyan Buddha statues survived thirteen hundred years of Muslim rule?
Buddhism and Islam on the Silk Road demonstrates that the history of Buddhist-Muslim interaction is much richer and more complex than many assume. This groundbreaking book covers Inner Asia from the eighth century through the Mongol empire and to the end of the Qing dynasty in the late nineteenth century. By exploring the meetings between Buddhists and Muslims along the Silk Road from Iran to China over more than a millennium, Johan Elverskog reveals that this long encounter was actually one of profound cross-cultural exchange in which two religious traditions were not only enriched but transformed in many ways.

Recent events—from strife in Tibet and the rapid growth of Christianity in China to the spectacular expansion of Chinese Buddhist organizations around the globe—vividly demonstrate that one cannot understand the modern Chinese world without attending closely to the question of religion. The Religious Question in Modern China highlights parallels and contrasts between historical events, political regimes, and cultural movements to explore how religion has challenged and responded to secular Chinese modernity, from 1898 to the present.
 
Vincent Goossaert and David A. Palmer piece together the puzzle of religion in China not by looking separately at different religions in different contexts, but by writing a unified story of how religion has shaped, and in turn been shaped by, modern Chinese society. From Chinese medicine and the martial arts to communal temple cults and revivalist redemptive societies, the authors demonstrate that from the nineteenth century onward, as the Chinese state shifted, the religious landscape consistently resurfaced in a bewildering variety of old and new forms. The Religious Question in Modern China integrates historical, anthropological, and sociological perspectives in a comprehensive overview of China’s religious history that is certain to become an indispensible reference for specialists and students alike.

《仪式与信仰:当代文化人类学新视野》主要内容：新疆是一个多民族多元文化的地区，在历史上是东西方各种族、各民族、各种文化彼此交汇的圣地。在这片土地上活动过的人类群体都留下了深深的印记，而这些印记又刻在了现在生活在这一地区的各民族的文化当中，这些民族的民间信仰就是这些历史印记的载体。我们知道，萨满文化或叫萨满信仰是阿尔泰语系各民族原生型的民间信仰。在历史上，道教、儒教、佛教、袄教、景教、摩尼教、伊斯兰教分别传人这些民族当中，并对这些民族的社会和文化产生了巨大的影响。以属于突厥语族的维吾尔族为例，历史上有过四次大的宗教改革，而伊斯兰教自公元9—10世纪传人以后，对维吾尔社会及文化的影响是前所未有的，它甚至在维吾尔人的社会中形成了察合台维吾尔书面语言，并进而使维吾尔人使用已久的古回鹘文书写符号发生了彻底的变更。然而，它却未能彻底改变或驱除人们心灵深处的原生型民间信仰——萨满教，反而最终与萨满信仰达成妥协，互动的结果便是伊斯兰教在普及的同时，也完成了它在这些民族中的本土化进程，形成了当今你中有我、我中有你的突厥语诸民族的伊斯兰教。

本論文集原為國科會「道教與民間文化」的整合型計畫，與文哲所規劃籌辦的年度國際性會議合併舉行，擴大邀請學者，針對其中的重要課題作較集中的討論。其中有關早期道教史的問題，或較弘觀地探討中國宗教；或從儒家「教」的觀點思考教化與信仰的關係，探究儒家教義是否也曾經由「擬似宗教」的形式表現出來；或探討「儒宗神教」在臺灣兩三百年中如何發展？又如何衍變？從中反映出臺灣宗教史上的一些現象；或則針對區域內的寺廟神與社區的關係，從其中的信仰形成、祭祀圈內的信仰行為等作較深入的調查，期望理解其社會、宗教的雙重意義；或則對於神祇的研究，反映出不同的信仰現象及人們對於不同神明的態度；或則有關儀式的調查，涉及國人面對集體或個人的宗教情境，如何以儀式行為加以解決，及面對死亡這一關卡時，所出現的喪藏儀式又有何意義；或則有關道教與民間文化的關係，乃涉及道教信仰如何深入民間社會，並與原本既已存在的宗教意識之間的互動關係。

《甘肃宕昌藏族家藏古藏文苯教文献》是迄今为止发现的最完整、最古老的大型苯教典籍。共发现31函，547部，分藏于甘肃宕昌十几户藏民家中。其世代守护，秘不外传，仅在祭祀或禳灾祈福时取出供奉。“文革”时期，他们援仿历史上“伏藏”形式，吃咒盟誓，秘送深山，掘地封存，上筑土堆，覆以树木花草，委专人看守，遂使其幸免于难，保存至今。
经有关专家初步鉴估，文献中既有相当数量古藏文创制前的象形文字及古象雄文写就的，也有古藏文文字写就的，均采用传统的梵箧装保存。其内容涉及苯教法师祈祷经文、禳灾防祸时的咒文、苯教祭祀史料及古象雄时期藏族先民社会生活、民情风俗等。从文字、内容等方面分析，可以初步确认是公元5～6世纪的苯教文献。宕昌藏族家藏的这些类别繁多的苯教文献，具有如下鲜明特点：一是内容丰富，流传年代久远。涉及打卦问卜、治病禳灾、节庆仪轨、祭祀山神等民间信仰的全部内容，几乎涵盖苯教文化的方方面面；二是文字多采用极为少见的“合成字”，将若干个藏文合造为一字，辨认难度较大，研究价值极高；三是包含有大量神秘难懂的苯教图符，这些图符应属苯教祭祀仪式中至为重要的内容，但其内涵及用法，尚需进一步解读。
这套文献发现后，引起国内外学界、媒体的高度关注。著名苯教研究专家、中央民族大学藏学院院长才让太先生以及藏学家班班多杰、沈卫荣等学者均认为，这套文献是藏经洞式的重大发现，是从事史学、文字学、宗教学等研究的资料宝库。美国、日本、德国、意大利、法国等国学术机构高度关注丛书的出版情况，纷纷表达获拥该书的愿望。该书分为30册，以8开精装、四色影印的形式出版。全套丛书系百年难遇的学术硕果，承载了藏民族在原始时代的精神文化遗产，具有极高的文物价值、史料价值和学术研究价值。

The conflict between science and religion seems indelible, even eternal. Surely two such divergent views of the universe have always been in fierce opposition? Actually, that’s not the case, says Peter Harrison: our very concepts of science and religion are relatively recent, emerging only in the past three hundred years, and it is those very categories, rather than their underlying concepts, that constrain our understanding of how the formal study of nature relates to the religious life.
In The Territories of Science and Religion, Harrison dismantles what we think we know about the two categories, then puts it all back together again in a provocative, productive new way. By tracing the history of these concepts for the first time in parallel, he illuminates alternative boundaries and little-known relations between them—thereby making it possible for us to learn from their true history, and see other possible ways that scientific study and the religious life might relate to, influence, and mutually enrich each other.
A tour de force by a distinguished scholar working at the height of his powers, The Territories of Science and Religion promises to forever alter the way we think about these fundamental pillars of human life and experience.

本成果从汉代宗教信仰的角度出发，以多学科交叉的研究方法探讨了汉墓中的时空隐喻要素以及见诸汉画的神祇与仙谱，重新解读了"孔子见老子"图、济南无影山彩绘陶器、长沙马王堆墓帛画、长沙金盆岭晋墓等诸多墓葬考古材料。尤其是通过大量考古材料与文献对应，论证了汉晋时期一个占支配地位的原始道教修仙思想--"太阴炼形"，并通过原始道教的神学逻辑建立起了一套死者太阴炼形成仙过程的理想模型，从而使许多令人费解的墓葬文化现象得到了合理的解释，解决了困扰学界多年的学术问题，填补此方面的学术空白。对中国古代思想史研究、宗教史研究及宗教考古学研究都具有非常重要的意义。
