The Weaving of Mantra: Kukai and the Construction of Esoteric Buddhist Discourse
Abe, Ryuichi (Harvard University)
Examines the Buddhist priest Kukai's influence on Japanese culture. This book contends that the importance of Kukai's transmission of esoteric Buddhism to Japan lay in his creation of a general theory of language grounded in the ritual speech of mantra. It explores the rhetorical strategies Kukai employed in his works.
