Charming Cadavers
Author: Liz Wilson
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 9780226900544
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 284
Book Description
In this highly original study of sexuality, desire, the body, and women, Liz Wilson investigates first-millennium Buddhist notions of spirituality. She argues that despite the marginal role women played in monastic life, they occupied a very conspicuous place in Buddhist hagiographic literature. In narratives used for the edification of Buddhist monks, women's bodies in decay (diseased, dying, and after death) served as a central object for meditation, inspiring spiritual growth through sexual abstention and repulsion in the immediate world. Taking up a set of universal concerns connected with the representation of women, Wilson displays the pervasiveness of androcentrism in Buddhist literature and practice. She also makes persuasive use of recent historical work on the religious lives of women in medieval Christianity, finding common ground in the role of miraculous afflictions. This lively and readable study brings provocative new tools and insights to the study of women in religious life.

Age of Pi and Prose

Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 451
Book Description
Between 476 CE and 505 CE, three heroic “makers of history” from India laid the seeds of a massive transformation in human society; the effects of which we still feel today. Budhagupta Vikramaditya, the heroic warrior emperor, unified a polarized and disintegrating country, defeated the “world conquering” armies of the Huns, appointed mentors to the Nan Qi emperors of Southern China and paved the way for organized state formation in Tibet. He organized a series of mega conferences that powered a transformative intellectual ferment. Two products of the intellectual ferment of these years were the child prodigy, Aryabhata, and the literary giant, Subandhu. In the wider realm of world politics and society, the effects of events of these three decades in India laid the foundation for some of the most defining moments of civilizational history. These moments included the unification of the Korean peninsula in the 7th cent, the consolidation of imperial control by the Soga clan in Japan, the transformation of Chinese polity, a redefinition of Sassanian kingship in Persia and an intellectual revolution in late medieval Europe. This book is a non-fiction narrative of this incredible yet rare story of three Indians who in a short span of thirty years created a whole new world.
