Reviews

Poet-Monks offers a compelling meld of Tang literary history and literary analysis and also presents a novel approach to understanding the role of Buddhist practice and philosophy in Chinese poetry during the Tang dynasty (860–960). Thomas J. Mazanec not only revises and redefines how scholars might look at the poetry written during this period, but he also offers an intriguing approach for how scholars might explore other literary traditions defined by the spiritual world in which they developed. * Choice *
