Sinitic Religion 《論學談詩二十年：胡適楊聯陞往來書札》

胡適在與楊聯陞談論楊先生的關於"自搏和自撲" 的論文時，指出英國詩人丁尼生Tennyson 的作品 Saint Simoen Stylites，有描述中古"聖徒"這方面的描述 (他推薦楊讀該詩)。
St Simeon Stylites by Lord Alfred Tennyson


他定義他的中國宗教 (Sinitic Religion): Religious Taoism was originally a consolidated form of the native beliefs and practices. " 許多原帶地域性的信仰與儀式的結合"
