Gregory: Buddhism in the Sung Pa
ISBN: 9780824826819 / Angielski / Miękka / 656 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. New paperback edition The Sung Dynasty (960-1279) has long been recognized as a major watershed in Chinese history.

Indeed, the study of Buddhism during the Sung has lagged behind that of other periods of Chinese history. One reason for the neglect of this important aspect of Sung society is undoubtedly the tenacity of the view that the Sung marked the beginning of an...
