BUDDHA & MAN is the first published English translation of the writings of Eikichi Ikeyama (1873-1938). Ikeyama, a professor of German who lived & taught several years in Europe, was a devout nembutsu practitioner well known in Japan for his dynamic, witty lectures on Shin Buddhism. In Dr. Toshikazu Arai's equally dynamic & witty translation, Ikeyama's profound insight into the existential depth of Shin Buddhism (Pure Land Mahayana) comes across with extraordinary clarity. Currently on the faculty of Soai Women's University in Osaka, Japan, Dr. Arai was formerly a professor at the University of Hawaii. His sensitive translation titled BUDDHA & MAN is of the portion subtitled 'Milestone' in Ikeyama's HOTOKE TO HITO. This portion was regarded by Ikeyama as the core & essence of his work. Students, general readers, & Buddhists themselves will be jolted into a fresh look at Shin Buddhism through this remarkable book. Quality paperback.
