Description

Peter Schafer, Professor and Director of the Institute for Judaic Studies at the Free University Berlin as well as Professor of Religion and Ronald O. Perelman Professor for Jewish Studies at Princeton University, celebrated his 60th birthday on 29 June 2003. In honor of this occasion 23 of his students are presenting the collection of essays in this volume. Synopsis This volume provides the first comprehensive analysis and chronology of the earliest known stone sculptures from the north Indian city of Mathura, dating prior to the famous Kushan period. It includes numerous new attributions of objects based primarily on epigraphic and visual analysis. The sculptures attributable to these pre-Kushan periods reveal new evidence for the reasons behind the emergence of the anthropomorphic image of the Buddha at Mathura, the predominance of a heterodox sect of Jainism, and the proliferation of cults of nature divinities. This book provides a wealth of reference material useful for historians of early Indian art, religion, and epigraphy. The book is illustrated with over three hundred photographs, and it includes epigraphic appendices with complete transcriptions and updated translations. About the Author Sonya Rhie Quintanilla, Ph.D. (1999) in History of Art and Architecture, Harvard University, is Curator of Asian Art at the San Diego Museum of Art. She has published on aspects of early Indian sculpture and Sultanate manuscript painting, including "Ayagapatas: Characteristics, Symbolism, and Chronology (Artibus Asiae, LV, 2000, pp. 79-137)?? ??
