FOR THE MULTIMEDIA AND INTERDISCIPLINARY STUDIES OF BUDDHISM
& EAST ASIAN RELIGIONS
紙本、刻本、與電子空間:
建構多媒質、多學科的佛學與東亞宗教研究的全球網絡的前景
OCTOBER 4-6, 2015
It is vital that we advance our understanding of East Asian religions as the economic
and political importance of this region increases. As vehicles carrying meaning,
apotropaic devices, and objects of devotion in their own right, texts have played a
critical role in the interconnected religious, economic, artistic, and scientific life of
East Asia. Thanks to discoveries of texts and artifacts and to increased opportunities
for ethnographic observation, scholarship over the past decade has enriched our
understanding of both historical and contemporary religious phenomena in East Asia.
Despite these advances, study in our field still remains divided by boundaries set by
national borders, academic disciplines, and sectarian lines. As a result, new evidence
is unearthed but not shared widely. Historical connections between seemingly
disparate times and places remain obscure. This workshop represents a small step
towards breaking through these barriers by bringing together scholars and sources that
have not often been in dialogue. Creating a worldwide network of institutions and
scholars will allow us to access, record, and interpret material in ways that would be
otherwise impossible.
