Soong-Müller Sh., Obi L., Weigelt U. Yao Manuscripts in the Bavarian State Liemary: the Munich Yao Project // Manuscripta Orientalia. Vol. 5. No. 3. September 1999. P. 49—58.
The Bavarian State Library in Munich holds a collection of
more than 1.000 Yao manuscripts, originating from China
(Guangdong, Guangxi, Guizhou, Yunnan), Vietnam, Laos,
Thailand and Myanmar. These manuscripts most of which
are of religious contents date to the early eighteenth - late
twentieth century, and are written in Chinese script. In
October 1995, a research project Written Sources on Yao
Religion was initiated by the Institute of East Asian Studies,
Ludwig-Maximilians-University, Munich. One of the
purposes of the project was computer support to cataloguing
of the manuscripts with regard to bibliographical information,
date, regional origin, and persons mentioned. The
resulting catalogue is planned to be published as part of the
series Verzeichnis der orientalischen Handschriften in
Deutschland, thus making the manuscripts available for international
research.
Examination of the manuscripts focused on their role in
religious ritual and on the influence of Chinese religion.
The quantity of the material allowed insight into relationships
and migrations of the owners as well as comparison of
different Yao groups and their history. Since the manuscripts
cover a wide geographical and historical range, it
was possible to compare local traditions and different
versions of similar texts. Thus information on the relation
of Yao religion to Chinese popular religion and Daoism
could be gained...
