1929Very Good French In contemporary 1/3 leather bdg. Small folio. (33 x 26 cm). In French. [10] ,214, [4] p., 'c' numerous b/w plates. La peinture Indienne a l'epoque des Grands Moghols. First Edition. Rare. Sour cadette de la rayonnante miniature persane, la peinture moghole ne fut étudiée qu'à dater du début de ce siècle. Elle n'était considérée jusqu'à ce jour que sous l'aspect d'une branche souvent inférieure des expressions esthétiques iraniennes. Vue sous l'angle de l'art indien, elle retrouve la place importante qui lui était due. Nous avons rendu compte dans les notes bibliographiques de ce Bulletin, M. Parmentier en 1919, nous-même en 1929, d'un ouvrage de M. E. B. Havell intitulé Indian Sculpture and Painting. Cet auteur eut le premier le mérite de placer l'école moghole et l'école néo-indienne à leur rang légitime. M. I. S. rend un juste hommage à M. Havell ainsi qu'à ses successeurs dans l'appréciation des choses sous cet angle nouveau. Il était cependant fort regrettable de constater la pauvreté de la littérature française sur cette question. Nous ne pouvons donc que féliciter vivement M. I. S. de nous avoir offert un important volume sur un sujet à peu près neuf dans notre langue. La nouveauté de ce dernier exigeait la méthode rigoureuse qui a présidé à l'élaboration de ce travail. Dans une première partie historique, M. I. S. étudie la filiation des traditions anciennes avec l'école moghole et néo-indienne. L'auteur insiste sur la continuité de la tradition artistique indienne. Les moyens d'expression des formes picturales de l'homme, puis de la nature, leur définition et leur classement font l'objet d'une seconde partie analytique. Enfin, l'auteur entreprend de déterminer la formation esthétique de la peinture moghole dans une dernière partie, où il étudie, synthétiquement, le rythme de la composition et de la couleur, II est un fait certain : c'est la peinture qui s'est le moins bien conservée au cours des siècles. Cependant, quelques épaves ont miraculeusement survécu aux intempéries, aux invasions et aux guerres. Comme, d'autre part, de nombreuses allusions littéraires font mention de peintures, nous avons en mains les données suffisantes pour que l'historien d'art puisse reconstituer les étapes de l'évolution de cet art. Quoique notre connaissance des débuts soit nécessairement déformée par la légende, la peinture semble avoir tenu à cette époque lointaine une grande place dans la pensée indienne. Elle était le délassement préféré des princes, et la bibliographie amoureuse y trouve largement son compte. Toute personne cultivée avait chez elle le matériel nécessaire à l'exécution d'un portrait, et ceux-ci étaient, paraît-il, fort ressemblants. Mais le caractère profane de la représentation des personnages fut tel qu'au début il était interdit aux moines bouddhiques de séjourner dans les lieux où de pareilles images étaient exposées. Cette interdiction ne dura d'ailleurs pas et l'Eglise bouddhique comprit rapidement la nécessité d'user à son tour de ce puissant moyen de favoriser sa propagande. La connaissance de ces interdictions suffit à déterminer l'origine laïque de la peinture indienne. Les canons aux règles impérieuses ne font leur apparition que vers le VIIe siècle et superposent la formule d'école à l'inspiration directe de la nature. Ces lois enrayeront ainsi graduellement l'évolution de cette forme d'art. En ce qui concerne la décoration des monuments, les plus anciennes fresques sont celles delà grotte Jogimarâ (Orissâ) datant du début de notre ère et celles d'Ajantâ qui remontent, pour certaines «caves», aux deux premiers siècles. Ces représentations, dont le thème est emprunté aux Jàtakas, révèlent une technique en possession de moyens très développés. Notons en passant que les différents auteurs qui ont traité de ce sujet ne sont pas parfaitement d'accord sur les différents moyens mis en ouvre par cette technique. La symétrie des volumes, la sécheresse, une raideur générale, sont les

Denominational Press Paperback. Jiyu-Kennett 1924 1996 born Peggy Teresa Nancy Kennett was a British roshi most famous for having been the first female to be sanctioned by the Soto School of Japan to teach in the West. As a young woman she found herself questioning gender roles in society and grew to become disillusioned with Christianity. She studied medieval music at Durham University and then received a scholarship to Trinity College of Music in London England. Though attracted to Buddhism she felt during this period that she was called to serve the Church of England as a priest. However church policies at the time did not allow women to be ordained and this enhanced her previous disillusionment with Christianity. She first became interested in Theravada Buddhism during this period of questioning and searching joining the London Buddhist Vihara. In 1954 she joined the London Buddhist Society where she continued her Buddhist studies and lectured. While there she met the scholar D.T. Suzuki and developed a strong interest in Zen Buddhism. In 1960 when Keido Chisan Koho of Sojiji in Japan came to the society she was asked to make the arrangements for his stay. Koho asked if she would consider becoming his student back in Japan. She accepted the offer and two years passed before she arrived at Sojiji to study under him. In January 1962 Kennett traveled to Malaysia to accept an award she had been honored with for setting a Buddhist hymn "Welcome Joyous Wesak Day" by Sumangalo to music. Before leaving for Japan Kennett was ordained a novice nun by Venerable Seck Kim Seng in the Linji Chan school and given the Buddhist name Jiyu meaning compassionate friend. Jiyu-Kennett arrived in Japan in 1962. She trained at Sojiji under Keido Chisan Koho Zenjifrom whom she received Dharma transmission in 1963. Because Koho was often preoccupied with administrative affairs Jiyu-Kennett spent much of her time studying under one of Koho Zenji's senior officers Suigan Yogo roshi. She remained until after the death of her master Koho in 1967. By 1969 she received authorization to begin teaching Soto Zen in London England. That year she visited the United States on a lecture tour and decided to remain.6 At this time Jiyu-Kennett was not in good health as during her time in Japan she had experienced many illnesses.7 In 1969 Jiyu-Kennett founded the Zen Mission Society in San Francisco and in 1970 Shasta Abbey in Mount Shasta California8 the first Soto Zen school in the United States to be established by a woman. In 1972 Jiyu-Kennett's British chapter of the Zen Mission Society established Throssel Hole Priory in Northumberland England.39 In 1978 Jiyu-Kennett changed the name of the Zen Mission Society to the Order of Buddhist Contemplatives. In 1975 Jiyu-Kennett was stricken with illness yet again and this time she became bedridden. In 1976 she resigned from her position as abbess of Shasta Abbey and went into retreat in Oakland California. Still rather ill of unknown causes she had her student Daizui MacPhillamy with her often to tend to her care. Following a kensho experience he had she conferred Dharma transmission to him at her bedside in 1976. Not long after she began having visions. Stephen Batchelor describes these episodes "The visions lasted for 12 months until 26 January 1977 the first twelve occurring in Oakland the rest at Shasta where she returned on 25 October. Each vision unfolded as a dream-like episode charged with Western and Buddhist religious symbolism superimposing itself on whatever she saw around her. She compared the series of visions to an elaborated contemporary version of the classical Zen images of the ten 'ox-herding' pictures. By the time the final vision faded she was cured. She interpreted the experience as that of a 'third kensho"." Jiyu-Kennett had a commanding presence about her both intellectually as well as physically. Of a rather husky build she had a tremendous laughter and was known to be gifted at storytelling. To some her demeanor appeared rather persistent at times as author James Ishmael Ford writes "She followed in the authoritarian style of her Japanese inheritance.She had genuine insight into the boundless realm and also pushed me toward my own deepest experience of the great matter." Her adaptation of Zen for Westerners has been likened to Japanese Soto Zen with a flavor of the Church of England for she believed that Zen in North America should adopt Western monastic dress and liturgical forms. For example she set the traditional Buddhist liturgy to music based on Gregorian chants. Jiyu-Kennett was an advocate for equality between the sexes and was herself swayed by the idea that women would never be deemed as equal to men if they were not understood to possess souls. She asserted that no woman will be certain she is equal "until she knows with the certainty that I know that her own Buddha-nature or her own soul exists." The Order of Buddhist Contemplatives founded by Jiyu-Kennett now has chapters in the United States the Netherlands Canada the West Indies the United Kingdom and Germany.
