About The Book: Buddhist Masses for the Dead at Amoy by J. J. M. de Groot is a detailed ethnographic study of Chinese Buddhist rituals associated with death and ancestor worship in the Amoy region (modern Xiamen). The book explores the structure, symbolism, and spiritual significance of masses performed for the dead, highlighting beliefs in the afterlife, karma, and merit-making. De Groot combines firsthand observation with scholarly analysis to present a vivid picture of how religious practices shaped social and spiritual life in late Qing China.
