Oedipal God: The Chinese Nezha and His Indian Origins
Meir Shahar
Offers the most comprehensive account in any language of the prodigal deity Nezha. Celebrated for over a millennium, Nezha is among the most formidable and enigmatic of all Chinese gods. In this theoretically informed study Meir Shahar recounts Nezha's riveting tale - which culminates in suicide and attempted patricide - and uncovers hidden tensions in the Chinese family system.
