Book Summary
Combines anthropological descriptions with historical criticism, situates the Zen arts firmly within contemporary critical discourses about cultural representations, and suggests that the Zen arts are best understood in terms of a dynamic relationship between an aesthetic discourse on art and culture, and the social and embodied experiences of those who participate in them.
