Buddhist Learning and Textual Practice in Eighteenth-Century Lankan Monastic Culture - Buddhisms: A Princeton University Press Series

Comparing eighteenth-century Sri Lankan Buddhist monastic education to medieval Christian and other contexts, this book examines such issues as bilingual commentarial practice, the relationship between clerical and "popular" religious cultures, and the place of preaching in the constitution of "textual communities".
