A HISTORY OF ZEN BUDDHISM

Heinrich Dumoulin, S.J

TRANSLATED FROM THE GERMAN BY PAUL PEACHEY

PANTHEON BOOKS

A Division of Random House

Readers interested  in Zen  Buddhism  have  too often been offered a religion  torn  from  its context, neither  Western   nor  Eastern,  living  in a limbo of its own. Professor Dumoulin  introduces us to the  real  Zen  Buddhism,   the  force which  was  formed  in  the  matrix  of   Asian civilization, evolved  through the different  phases al  Oriental  culture,   and  only   later   became  a factor in Western thinking. Starting with  the mystical elements in the Indian  religions, he traces the development of Zen from its origins in China through its transplantation to Japan, where it reached its highest development. This historical survey leads the reader to Zen's meeting with the West and to its influence on modern Asia. The seriousness of genuine scholarship is matched by an easy clarify of style, and enlivened by the many delightful illustrations from Zen folklore and poetry.

Heinrich Dumoulin’s career makes him an ideal interpreter of Zen to the West. For many years a resident and teacher in Japan, he was gained an exceptional understanding of his subject and its implication. Neither partisan nor polemicist, Professor Dumoulin writes with a serene objectivity, explaining Zen in its own terms and relating it as well to  current Western psychological and theological writings. The result is a definitive study of Zen’s history and essence, useful equally to the beginning reader and to the advanced student of Zen
