Toward a modern Chinese Buddhism: Taixu's reforms

Abstract

The Venerable Master Taixu (1890-1947) is the most important and controversial Chinese Buddhist reformer of the twentieth century. This is the first major study in English to focus on the charismatic reformer and his teachings and provides a comprehensive and absorbing interpretation of Taixu's aims and the divisive controversies that surrounded him. This nuanced work is richly documented with quotations from Taixu's own writings and from various Chinese intellectuals and evangelists of the period.
