Description Contents
 
This is the fourth volume of proceedings of the Agama seminars convened by the Agama Research Group at the Dharma Drum Institute of Liberal Arts (formerly Dharma Drum Buddhist College). It comprises nineteen studies, contributed by eighteen different scholars, on various themes related to the Connected Collections of discourses (suttas, sutras)--Samyutta-nikaya in Pali, Samyukta-agama in Sanskrit -- transmitted by different early Buddhist lineages of reciters, preserved in their Indic originals in Gandhari, Pali, and Sanskrit as well as in Chinese and Tibetan translations. This research draws attention to fundamental methodological points posed by the study of these scriptural collections as windows into the formation of early Buddhist texts and the organisation of their transmission.
