Abstract | Over the last three decades, Steven Heine has maintained a constant presence at the intellectual forefront of Chan/Zen, and more broadly of East Asian Buddhist, studies. Given that he has published over a dozen monographs and as many edited collections, not to mention scores of scholarly articles, dealing mainly with Chinese and Japanese Chan/Zen in its historical, philosophical, and literary dimensions, it should come as no surprise that Heine’s latest monograph, Chan Rhetoric of Uncertainty in the Blue Cliff Record: Sharpening a Sword at the Dragon Gate, will prove required reading for anyone studying not only the Record itself, but also a wide range of related topics in Chan/Zen/Seon studies, embracing the manifold histories of textual, doctrinal, and practical transmissions and transformations from Song-dynasty China to later eras in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean Buddhism. |
