Of Gods, Gifts and Ghosts
How do individuals inscribe their spiritual identities and diasporic ethnicities in the city? From spirit mediums to the Hungry Ghost Festival, each chapter engages with the social, the spatial and the ephemeral, and in so doing it will: explore the significance and relevance of Chinese religion in a secular nation-state; reveal the strategies and tactics used by diasporic individuals to perform and retain their identities; uncover the importance of flow and fluidity in the making of sacred space; and evidence the value and efficacy of the use of photographs in social research. Through a series of sociological and photographic essays, Terence Heng maps the various rituals, collectives, individuals and events that characterize Chinese religion practices in Singapore.
Of Gods, Gifts and Ghosts is a groundbreaking exploration into the intersections between visual sociology,
