Prof. Jue Liang has been awarded a Franklin Research Grant (https://www.amphilsoc.org/grants/franklin-research-grants) from the American Philosophical Society in support of her research project “Souls on the Road: Pilgrimages to Tibet in the Chinese Religious Revival.” This book-length project centers around expressions of religiosity found on the two major roads connecting Sichuan Province and Tibet Autonomous Region in China. It queries the act of embarking on the journey itself – on foot, on a bike, driving – as a spiritual pursuit, in the context of the contemporary religious revival in China.
