Inhalt:

Daisetsu Teitarп̿ Suzuki was a key figure in the introduction of Buddhism to the non-Asian world. Many outside Japan encountered Buddhism for the first time through his writings and teaching, and for nearly a century his work and legacy have contributed to the ongoing religious and cultural interchange between Japan and the rest of the world, particularly the United States and Europe. This fourth volume of Selected Works of D. T. Suzuki brings together a range of Suzukiâ?¿s writings in the area of Buddhist studies. Based on his text-critical work in the Chinese canon, these essays reflect his commitment to clarifying MahÄ?yÄ?na Buddhist doctrines in Indian, Chinese, and Japanese historical contexts. Many of these innovative writings reflect Buddhological discourse in contemporary Japan and the Westâ?¿s pre-war ignorance of MahÄ?yÄ?na thought. Included is a translation into English for the first time of his "MahÄ?yÄ?na Was Not Preached by Buddha." In addition to editing the essays and contributing the translation, Mark L. Blum presents an introduction that examines how Suzuki understood MahÄ?yÄ?na discourse via Chinese sources and analyzes his problematic use of Sanskrit.
