Book Description
One of the two main philosophical schools of Indian Buddhism (the other being Madhyamaka), the Yogacara school has received comparatively little attention from Western scholars. This bibliography is an attempt to begin to rectify this omission by providing a comprehensive guide to scriptural sources and authors, translations and critical editions of texts, and books and articles on Yogacara and related topics. This work is the first comprehensive bibliography of Yogacara, and it covers an impressive range of primary and secondary materials in Western and Asian languages, including English, French, German, Russian, Sanskrit, Tibetan, Chinese, Korean, Japanese, and Vietnamese. The listings contain something for everyone: technical philiological studies, general discussions of meditation theory and practice, psychology, logic, and introductory works for beginning students of Yogacara.
