Robert Sharf is D.H. Chen Distinguished Professor in the Department of East Asian Languages and Cultures at the University of California, Berkeley, and the Chair of the Berkeley Center for Buddhist Studies. Although his research primarily lies in medieval Chinese Buddhism, particularly in Chan/Zen Buddhism, he has also published extensively in the areas of Japanese Buddhism, esoteric Buddhism, Buddhist modernism, Buddhist art, ritual studies, Asian philosophy, and methodological issues in the study of religion. This compilation of Chinese translations encompasses a collection of ten notable publications authored by Professor Sharf which delve into the realm of Chan/Zen studies. These articles serve as a testament to his exceptional scholarly investigation into Chan/Zen Buddhism within the cultural contexts of China and Japan.
