The book "Review of Politics and Religion in Ancient and Medieval Europe and China," edited by Frederick Hok-ming Cheung and Ming-chiu Lai, offers a multi-faceted analysis of political and religious dynamics across two distinct yet historically interconnected cultures. Through various studies, it explores the interplay between memory, societal change, and collective trauma, particularly focusing on incidents from modern Chinese history. The juxtaposition of these themes across different cultural landscapes provides valuable insights into how historical narratives are formed and the implications of these narratives on contemporary society.
