| Publisher Description: Ch n Buddhism in Dūnhu ng and Beyond: A Study of Manuscripts, Texts, and Contexts in Memory of John R. McRae is dedicated to the memory of the eminent Ch n scholar John McRae and investigates the spread of early Ch n in a historical, multi-lingual, and interreligious context. Combining the expertise of scholars of Chinese, Tibetan, Uighur, and Tangut Buddhism, the edited volume is based on a thorough study of manuscripts from Dūnhu ng, Turfan, and Karakhoto, tracing the particular features of Ch n in the Northwestern and Northern regions of late medieval China. |
