Buddhist Art in Its Relation to Buddhist Ideals, With Special Reference to Buddhism in Japan by Masaharu Anesaki Pdf

Excerpt from Buddhist Art in Its Relation to Buddhist Ideals, With Special Reference to Buddhism in Japan: Four Lectures Given at the Museum In Sanskrit and Pali, the vowels are pronounced as in Italian or Spanish; s and s are soft, something like sh in English; d and t are pure lingual consonants, not dental as in English; n is also a pure lingual consonant, - not nasal; th and dh are pronounced like the italicized letters in the phrases 'hit hard' and hard hit' respectively. In Chinese, according to Wade's system of transliteration, a is usually long as in 'father'; e short as in 'yet'; e, much like the vowel sound in the German 'schon, ' except before n, when it is like the vowel sound in 'sun'; ilong as in 'machine, ' except before n, when it is short as in 'pin'; 0 not quite so broad as the 'aw' in 'saw'; u like the vowel sound in 'too, ' except before n, when it resembles the vowel sound in 'look'; it like the French 'u' in 'du'; ii, something like the vowel sound in the first syllable of 'surround'; on, something like the vowel sound in 'foe'; ai as in 'aisle'; ei like the vowel sound in 'say'; in other vowel combinations each letter retains its original force; ch is hard as in 'church'; j is soft like the s in vision'; hs approximately like 'sh' in English. The inverted comma in T'ang, Ch'an and other words indicates a gentle aspirate. In Japanese the vowels are sounded as in Italian or Spanish. Each member of a diphthong or other vowel combination retains its original force, and the important distinction between a long and a short vowel results from duration of utterance rather than from any change in sound. The consonants are pronounced approximately as in English. G is hard as in 'give, ' and double consonants should be pronounced really double, as in 'shot - tower' or 'cock-crow.' There is practically no tonic accent, though. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Flowing Traces by James H. Sanford,William R. LaFleur,Masatoshi Nagatomi Pdf

According to the contributors to this volume, the relationship of Buddhism and the arts in Japan is less the rendering of Buddhist philosophical ideas through artistic imagery than it is the development of concepts and expressions in a virtually inseparable unity. By challenging those who consider religion to be the primary phenomenon and art the secondary arena for the apprehension of religious meanings, these essays reveal the collapse of other dichotomies as well. Touching on works produced at every social level, they explore a fascinating set of connections within Japanese culture and move to re-envision such usual distinctions as religion and art, sacred and secular, Buddhism and Shinto, theory and substance, elite and popular, and even audience and artist. The essays range from visual and literary hagiographies to No drama, to Sermon-Ballads, to a painting of the Nirvana of Vegetables. The contributors to the volume are James H. Foard, Elizabeth ten Grotenhuis, Frank Hoff, Laura S. Kaufman, William R. LaFleur, Susan Matisoff, Barbara Ruch, Yoshiaki Shimizu, and Royall Tyler. Originally published in 1992. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.

Behold the Buddha by James C. Dobbins Pdf

Images of the Buddha are everywhere—not just in temples but also in museums and homes and online—but what these images mean largely depends on the background and circumstance of those viewing them. In Behold the Buddha, James Dobbins invites readers to imagine how premodern Japanese Buddhists understood and experienced icons in temple settings long before the advent of museums and the internet. Although widely portrayed in the last century as visual emblems of great religious truths or as exquisite works of Asian art, Buddhist images were traditionally treated as the very embodiment of the Buddha, his palpable presence among people. Hence, Buddhists approached them as living entities in their own right—that is, as awakened icons with whom they could interact religiously. Dobbins begins by reflecting on art museums, where many non-Buddhists first encounter images of the Buddha, before outlining the complex Western response to them in previous centuries. He next elucidates images as visual representations of the story of the Buddha’s life followed by an overview of the physical attributes and symbolic gestures found in Buddhist iconography. A variety of Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, and other divinities commonly depicted in Japanese Buddhism is introduced, and their “living” quality discussed in the context of traditional temples and Buddhist rituals. Finally, other religious objects in Japanese Buddhism—relics, scriptures, inscriptions, portraits of masters, and sacred sites—are explained using the Buddhist icon as a model. Dobbins concludes by contemplating art museums further as potential sites for discerning the religious character of Buddhist images. Those interested in Buddhism generally who would like to learn more about its rich iconography—whether encountered in temples or museums—will find much in this concise, well-illustrated volume to help them “behold the Buddha.”
