MING T'AI-TSU AND THE GODS OF THE WALLS AND MOATS
Abstract
In an earlier article, I cited Chu Yuan-chang's relations with his nobility of merit as evidence that contrary tendencies in political organization, feudalistic and despotic respectively, may have predominated in the earlier and later stages of the bottom-to-top process of the formation of the Ming imperial state. The Ming founder's parallel management of his relations with the popular gods of the walls and moats offers a context within which to consider the process of dynastic founding under the aspect of religious belief and practice.

“The encompassment of popular by official religion was indicated by the fact that the official pantheon was itself encompassed by the abstractly conceived cosw s o s o o o s o os form and the distinction between cosmos and pantheon was collapsed; the classical celestial and terrestrial spirits became the spirits of deceased humans (Freedman 1974:39; Taylor 1977).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
