Description

This is the first collection to offer selections from the foundational texts of the Chinese, Korean, and Japanese Zen traditions in a single volume. Through representative selections from their poetry, letters, sermons, and visual arts, the most important Zen Masters provide students with an engaging, cohesive introduction to the first 1,200 years of this rich—and often misunderstood—tradition. A general Introduction provides historical, biographical, and cultural context; notes on translation and a glossary are also included.
