Selected Works of D.T. Suzuki, Volume I by Daisetsu Teitaro Suzuki

Daisetsu Teitaro Suzuki was a key figure in the introduction of Buddhism to the non-Asian world. This book gathers the range of Suzuki's writings both classic essays and lesser-known but equally significant articles.
"Jaffe's excellent introduction places Suzuki's writings in the contexts of modern developments in religious thought, practice, and scholarship in such a way as to make crystal clear the relevance of Suzuki's interpretation of Zen for contemporary Buddhist scholarship.. Recommended." CHOICE Connect
Daisetsu Teitaro Suzuki (1870--1966) was a Japanese-born scholar and translator who over the course of the twentieth century came to be regarded as one of the leading authorities on Zen Buddhism. He was the author of more than a hundred works on the subject in both Japanese and English and was instrumental in bringing the teachings of Zen and other forms of Buddhism to the attention of the Western world. His many books in English include An Introduction to Zen Buddhism, Essays in Zen Buddhism, Living by Zen, Zen and Japanese Culture, Mysticism: Christian and Buddhist, and Shin Buddhism. Richard M. Jaffe is Associate Professor of Religious Studies at Duke University and the author of Neither Monk nor Layman: Clerical Marriage in Modern Japanese Buddhism.
