This book marks a new orientation in the study of history of Buddhism and its iconography, divided into five chapters:
Chapter-I Prologue;
Chapter-II Philosphical study;
Chapter-III Mythological study;
Chapter-IV Iconological study; and
Chapter-V Epilogue
Copious textual citations and visual documentation in the form of Thirty-eight illustrations of images lend authenticity to the volume which doubtless is a significant scholarly contribution to the iconological study of Indian art. |
