Sutras as a Genre of World Literature: Thoughts on Translation,<i>Translatio</i>, and Poetry as Movement

Name: Work Video:
Duration: 3 min 30 s
Description: This article thinks through the Buddhist sutra as a mode of world literary production from the second century CE to the present. I argue for understanding the sutra as a site of remediation and as a massively open-ended textual project aimed at articulating expressions of insight.
