"Encountering Buddhism in Twentieth-Century British and American
Literature" explores the ways in which 20th-century literature has
been influenced by Buddhism, and has been, in turn, a major factor
in bringing about Buddhism's increasing spread and influence in the
West. Focussing on Britain and the United States, Buddhism's
influence on a range of key literary texts will be examined in the
context of those societies' evolving modernity. Writers discussed
include T. S. Eliot, Hermann Hesse, Virginia Woolf, Jack Kerouac,
Allen Ginsberg, J. D. Salinger, Iris Murdoch, Maxine Hong Kingston.
This book brings together for the first time a series of
context-rich interpretations that demonstrate the importance of
literature in this ongoing cultural change in Britain and the
United States.
