CrsNo RLST116 PO
When Offered: Offered alternate years; next offered spring 2014.

The Lotus Sutra is undoubtedly the most popular Buddhist scripture in East Asia. Following the text’s trajectory from its emergence in India to its broad dissemination across East Asia, up to the present day, we will critically analyze its many (re)imaginings in doctrinal schools, popular literature, ritual practices, art and architecture and, in modern times, even social activities. Letter grade only.
