| 抄録 | The 6 volumes in this collection reprint the most important and rare sources for the study of America initial encounter with Buddhism. The 6 volumes of this collection offer an illuminating glimpse at a moment of cultural contact that has had enduring significance for the US and for Asian nations. Tweed is the author of The American Encounter with Buddhism，1844?912：Victorian Culture and the Limits of Dissent (1992).
Recognizing the great influence that Buddhism has exerted on popular and elite culture in the US since the 1960s through transnational migrants, European-American converts and the many artists and intellectuals who have turned to that Asian religion for inspiration，this collection documents those cultural contacts and exchanges which began much earlier in 1844 when an American scholar delivered a lecture on Buddhism to the American Oriental Society and the Dial，the primary Transcendentalist magazine，published an excerpt of a translation of an important Buddhist scripture，the Lotus Sutra.
That initial encounter with Buddhism peaked between 1879 and the early 1900s and the vol.1 of this set，Contacts and Exchanges in Print Culture：Encountering Buddhism in US Periodicals, 1844?903，is an edited collection of the most significant contributions to the 19th-century discussion about the meaning and value of Buddhism.
It includes articles in a range of magazines including widely read general interest periodicals such as the Atlantic Monthly and North American Review; religious journals such as the Baptist Quarterly and American Catholic Quarterly Review; and the earliest American Buddhist periodicals, The Buddhist Ray (1888?4) and The Light of Dharma (1901?). Covering the period 1876-1925，vol.2? reprint 12 books that were among the most influential in the US encounter with Buddhism.
The diverse contributors reflect the enormous range of participants in the public conversation about Buddhism during this period：there are articles and books by several Asian Buddhists, American travellers, American converts, Buddhist sympathizers, academic scholars, social reformers and a wide range of Catholic and Protestant clergy and missionaries who worried aloud about the popularity of Buddhism after the publication of Edwin Arnold Light of Asia in 1879 and the visit of Asian spokesmen at the World Parliament of Religions in 1893. |
