| 抄録 | All forms of Buddhism--The Theravada, the Mahayana and the Vajrayana--affirm the perfectability of the person, and
one finds this notion of perfection embodied in three images; the arahant, the bodhisattva and the mahasiddha. Reader also
finds, in scholarly treatments of Buddhism, much made of the perceived differences among these three 'vehicles' (yana). By
close textual analysis as well as by extensive field work, Katz criticizes this emphasis on difference and prefers to treat
Buddhism as a whole, a position he finds in accord with the teachings of both Buddhists and Buddhist texts. By a close
examination of these three images of human perfection, bridges among the Theravada, the Mahayana and the Vajrayana are built
and continuities within Buddhism are explored. This comparison involves pioneering discussions of Buddhist philosophy of
language and hermeneutics, which are facilitated by Katz's familiarity with Pali, Sanskrit and Tibetan Buddhist texts as
well as his sympathetic involvement with the living Buddhist tradition. Nathan Katz is Professor of Religious Studies at the
University of South Florida Tampa (U.S.A.). He is Editor of USF Monographs in Religion and Public Policy. He has received
two Fullbright research awards, as well as grants from the American Council of Learned Societies and the Florida Endowment
for the Humanities. |
