  • - Reading the Biographical Corpus of Tibet's Great Saint Milarepa
    af Andrew Quintman
    439,95 - 977,95 kr.

    Tibetan biographers began writing Jetsun Milarepa's (1052-1135) life story shortly after his death, initiating a literary tradition that turned the poet and saint into a model of virtuosic Buddhist practice throughout the Himalayan world. Andrew Quintman traces this history and its innovations in narrative and aesthetic representation across four centuries, culminating in a detailed analysis of the genre's most famous example, composed in 1488 by Tsangnyon Heruka, or the "e;Madman of Western Tibet."e; Quintman imagines these works as a kind of physical body supplanting the yogin's corporeal relics.
