bio A specialist on medieval Daoism, Christine Mollier is the author of numerous works in that field including the award-winning book, Une apocalypse taoïste du Ve siècle, Le Livre des incantations divines des grottes abyssales (Collège de France, 1990). She has collaborated in The Taoist Canon project (Univ. of Chicago Press, 2004), and The Encyclopedia of Taoism (Routledge, 2008).

As a member, since 1990, of the French research team on Dunhuang studies, she is co-author of the fifth volume of the Catalogue des manuscrits chinois du fonds Pelliot de Dunhuang (1995) and participated in several other major Dunhuang projects.

Her major works in this field are Buddhism and Taoism Face to Face: Scripture, Ritual, and Iconographic Exchange in Medieval China (Univ. of Hawaii Press, 2008, awarded the Stanislas Julien Prize of the Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-lettres, 2008), and “Iconizing the Daoist-Buddhist Relationship: Cliff Sculptures in Sichuan during the Reign of Emperor Tang Xuanzong", (Daoism: Religion, History and Society 2010-2 Chinese University of Hong Kong).

She is currently working on a book project on apotropaic talismans, investigating Eastern Han archeological finds and Dunhuang and Central Asian documents. (Source Accessed June 20, 2023)
