In den WarenkorbPaperback. Zustand: New. Sarnath has long been regarded as the place where the Buddha preached his first sermon and established the Buddhist monastic order. Excavations at Sarnath have yielded the foundations of temples and monastic dwellings, two Buddhist reliquary mounds (stupas), and some of the most important sculptures in the history of Indian art. This volume offers the first critical examination of the historic site.Frederick M. Asher provides a longue duree (long-term) analysis of Sarnath-including the plunder, excavation, and display ofantiquities and the Archaeological Survey of India's presentation-and considers what lies beyond the fenced-in excavated area. His analytical history of Sarnath's architectural and sculptural remains contains a significant study of the site's sculptures, their uneven production, and their global distribution. Asher also examines modern Sarnath, which is a living establishment replete with new temples and monasteries that constitute a Buddhist presence on the outskirts of Varanasi, the most sacred Hindu city.

Erstausgabe
In this seminal art-historical study, Frederick Asher challenges the traditional view that there was a "dark age" in Eastern Indian art between the Gupta and Pala periods. Focusing on Bihar, West Bengal, and Bangladesh, Asher documents the artistic continuity that bridged these two great eras. The volume provides: The "Transition" Period: A detailed look at the 6th-8th centuries, proving that the distinct "Pala Style" did not emerge in a vacuum but evolved from late Gupta precedents. Field Research: Based on extensive site visits, the book catalogs sculptures from major centers like Bodh Gaya and Nalanda, as well as lesser-known village sites. Visual Documentation: Illustrated with over 250 black-and-white plates, many of which were the first published images of these specific sculptures. This is the original prinitj Condition is good. Interior is clean and unmarked; the dust jacket has some tears.
