Oxford Handbook of Lived Buddhism Book cover

For those attending the annual meeting of the American Academy of Religion, as well as friends and colleagues in the Boston area, join us for a book launch and reception for The Oxford Handbook of Lived Buddhism.

The Handbook is co-edited by IBS’s Dr. Courtney Bruntz and Dr. Brooke Schedneck (Rhodes College). Meant for students at all levels, the Handbook of Lived Buddhism provides instructors and students diverse circumstances of Buddhism lived and practiced across cultural contexts, to deepen the engagement and study of Buddhism as a lived religion. Join us for a celebratory book event where authors from the volume will speak on the case studies they provide in the handbook, plus ways their work can be utilized in the classroom. The roundtable discussion will highlight many of the handbook’s chapters within the volume, offering a preview of the work for scholars, educators, and students.

A light reception will follow as well as a chance to get your own copy of the handbook!

This event is co-sponsored by the Institute of Buddhist Studies and Rhodes College.
