Walser explores how Nagarjuna secured the canonical authority of Mahayana teachings and considers his use of rhetoric to ensure the transmission of his writings by Buddhist monks. Drawing on close textual analysis of Nagarjuna's writings and other Buddhist and non-Buddhist sources, Walser offers an original contribution to the understanding of Nagarjuna and the early history of Buddhism. 606 $aMa?dhyamika (Buddhism) 606 $aMahayana Buddhism 615 0$aMa?dhyamika (Buddhism) 615 0$aMahayana Buddhism. 676 $a294.3/92 700 $aWalser$b Joseph$01583147 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910777561203321 996 $aNa?ga?rjuna in context$93866019 997 $aUNINA
