- W4254156632 abstract "Scholars and Buddhists alike have treated the Mahāvaṃsa as a history, provoking all the concomitant responsibilities and expectations and methods of interpretation assumed to be at work when one does (or reads and interprets) history. This chapter suggests that one of the primary concerns for the fourth and fifth century Mahāvihāran monks responsible for compiling the Dīpavaṃsa and Mahāvaṃsa was to provide a vehicle for the continued presence and proximity of the Buddha through evocative, transformative literature. The vaṃsa thus works on the reader/interpreter in ways not entirely unlike the way history works on the modern scholar, but there is a significant difference. The Mahāvaṃsa explicitly states its objectives in religious terms; the text is not only didactic but is intended to create or support an ethically inspired community in its religious program." @default.
