Early Daoist Hagiographies offers an engaging new translation of six key Daoist texts that recount the trials and spiritual practices of early Daoist practitioners who ascended to godhood in addition to the
Inner Tradition of Han Emperor Wu, an early sixth-century tale of Emperor Wu's failed pursuit of immortality. Together, they showcase the dynamic ways Daoist religious traditions shaped literary imagination in medieval China, a period of political upheaval and cultural innovation.
