Podcast appearances and mentions of Paul R Katz

康豹（Paul R. Katz），美國籍猶太人，1961年生於美國加州洛杉磯。1984年畢業於耶魯大學歷史學士、1990年取得普林斯頓大學歷史博士。   就讀於耶魯大學時，最初想研究基督教，但因為修了中國史教授史景遷（Jonathan Spence）的課，聽了很多白蓮教、義和團、羅教系宗教的故事，對中國的宗教文化產生興趣，1983年來到台灣，研究台灣民間信仰，成為台灣民間信仰的專家。之後娶了台灣妻子，長居於台灣，並先後任教於中正大學及中央大學，也精通台語與華語；2002年進入中央研究院近代史研究所擔任研究員，康豹對於宗教態度相當開明，並未執著於一種信仰，他自述：「父親信猶太教，母親是基督徒，妻子信佛教，而我雖相信上帝存在，卻不認為上帝一定要是白人或黃種人，不一定要信甚麼教才會得救！我逢廟必拜，寧可信其有，但其實信的是『睡覺』！」   來台灣32年，因為其研究而被稱「王爺」，還獲教育部頒發學術獎殊榮肯定。他表示，「菩薩保佑，台灣真好」他也認為，早期被視為迷信的信仰活動陸續新陳代謝出正面意義，加入文化性和精神性內裡，這是民主化對於信仰從傳統走向當代的一大貢獻。 主持人：賴靜嫻來賓：康豹（Paul R.

The study of religion in China has a long history across a number of interrelated disciplines. In recent years, scholars have been reassessing past scholarship and synthesizing it in new ways. The three-volume project “Concepts and Methods for the Study of Chinese Religions” is one of the most exciting of these endeavors and establishes productive groundwork for future research. It includes three books: Stefania Travagnin, André Laliberté, Concepts and Methods for the Study of Chinese Religions I: State of the Field and Disciplinary Approaches (De Gruyter, 2019); Stefania Travagnin, Gregory Scott, Concepts and Methods for the Study of Chinese Religions II: Intellectual History of Key Concepts (De Gruyter, 2020); and Stefania Travagnin, Paul R. Katz, Concepts and Methods for the Study of Chinese Religions III: Key Concepts in Practice (De Gruyter, 2019).  The contributions evaluate the current state of scholarship, discusses a variety of analytical approaches and theories about methodology, epistemology, and the ontology of the field. The three books display an interdisciplinary approach and offer debates that transcend national traditions. It engages with a variety of methodologies for the study of East Asian religions and promotes dialogues with Western and Chinese voices. In my conversation with Stefania Travagnin, Professor at SOAS and co-editor of all 3 volumes, we discuss the catalyst for the project, co-editing and organizing of a large interdisciplinary effort, how one can define Chinese religions, representative disciplinary approaches and themes of previous scholarship, Chinese keywords and categories for studying religion, the importance of regional or local contexts, diaspora communities and global China, religious interaction and cross-tradition approaches, and future directions to advance the field of Chinese religions.
