RLST 116 PO - The Lotus Sutra in East Asia CrsNo RLST116 PO
When Offered: Offered alternate years; next offered spring 2012.
Instructor(s): L. Zhiru
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 borad dissemination across East Asia, up to the present day, we will critically analyse its many (re)imaginings in doctrinal schools, popular literature, ritual practices, art and architecture and, in modern times, even social activities. Letter grade only.
