Section Title:
Lotus Sutra & Japanese Culture
Section Info:
Perhaps no other Buddhist scripture has had more impact on East Asian Culture than The Lotus Sutra. After reading the sutra and recent scholarship concerning its production and reception in India and China, we will examine the fundamental role the sutra played in Japanese Buddhism, with special attention to medieval Tendai and Nichiren. Attention will also be given to the impact the Lotus Sutra has had on art, literature, gender and Japanese society.
