Description

Patriarchs on Paper: A Critical History of Medieval Chan Literature

The truth of Chan Buddhism - better known as Zen - is regularly said to be beyond language and yet Chan authors - medieval and modern - produced an enormous quantity of literature over the centuries. To make sense of this paradox this book explores several genres of Chan literature that appeared during the Tang and Song dynasties (c 600-1300).
