Author Description

This volume is a follow-up to the collection published in 2012 by Oxford University Press, 'Dō gen: Textual and Historical Studies'. It features some of the same outstanding authors as well as new expert contributors exploring diverse aspects of the life and teachings of Zen master Dō gen (1200-1253), the founder of the Sō tō Zen sect (or Sō tō shū ) in early Kamakura-era Japan.
