AbstractThe papers included here address various issues that reflect manifold ways of approaching study of the Buddha image. Most were presented in July 2007 during the Nineteenth International Conference of the Association of South Asia Archaeologists in Europe. This volume intends to cast light on numerous possible ways of looking at the image and as such, should be considered in a sense 'preliminary' to further, more specific studies bearing on the topic. Contents: 1) Introduction (Claudine Bautze-Picron); 2) Seeking the Buddha in the American Museum of Natural History's Collection (Serinity Young and Kate Bollinger); 3) The dana, the patra and the cakravartin-ship: archaeological and art historical evidence for a social history of early medieval Buddhism (Anna Filigenzi); 4) Aspects of the Earliest Buddha Images in Gandhara (Akira Miyaji); The Flaming Protuberance on the Head of Tamil Buddhas, Its representations and concepts (Yuko Fukuroi); 5) New Considerations on some Gandharan Fasting Buddhas (Anna Maria Quagliotti); 6) The Emaciated Buddha in Southeast Bangladesh and Pagan (Myanmar) (Claudine Bautze-Picron); 7) Gandharan Bodhisattva Maitreya Image, Soteriological function of Ketos and Eros (Katsumi Tanabe); 8) Maya, Gandhara's Grieving Mother, Part 2 (Doris Meth Srinivasan).
