À propos de ce produit

Product Information

The English poet, philosopher, and literary critic William Empson considered 'The Face of the Buddha' to be one of his finest works and was heartbroken when he lost the only copy in the wake of World War Two. Its recent rediscovery means the book can now be offered for the very first time exactly as he intended.

Reviews
"Empson's fascinating monograph, which for its sheer exoticism will astonish any Empson buffs who weren't aware of its existence, may not convert the scholar of world religions or of Buddhism or of Buddhist art to its views, as the neophyte will learn from the admiring and helpful introduction by Rupert Arrowsmith. It is nonetheless an exciting tour of the one artform--early Buddhist sculpture--that seems to have captured Empson's full attention. The Face of the Buddha is a thrilling surprise, though, mainly because here, in a work of the left hand long known only to a few, we find Empson's brilliance and the deadpan comedy of his prose in top form." --Paul Fry, William Lampson Professor of English, Yale University "The Face of the Buddha is surely one of the most remarkable studies of Buddhist sculpture ever undertaken. When one of the greatest literary critics of the 20th century applies his incisive intellect to the analysis of the structural principles of images of the Buddha, unexpected insights emerge. In particular, William Empson's discovery of the asymmetrical composition of the Buddha's countenance in many works of East Asian and Southeast Asian art is revelatory, enabling him to illuminate a profound psychological tension between active and passive, between salvific and compassionate on the one hand and contemplative and meditative on the other, constituting the Buddha-nature as a whole." --Victor H. Mair, Professor of Chinese Language and Literature, University of Pennsylvania "...richly learned..." -New Statesman, "Empson's fascinating monograph, which for its sheer exoticism will astonish any Empson buffs who weren't aware of its existence, may not convert the scholar of world religions or of Buddhism or of Buddhist art to its views, as the neophyte will learn from the admiring and helpful introduction by Rupert Arrowsmith.
