Samenvatting
Mair (Chinese, U. of Pennsylvania) traces the global development over a thousand years of a genre of popular Buddhist folk literature from China known as pie-wen, pointing out its origins in India as a form of oral storytelling using paintings as an aid, and showing how that form has influenced performance and literary traditions in India, Indonesia, Japan, Central Asia, the Near East, Italy, France, and Germany. Numerous bandw illustrations (60 p.), extensive bibliography (40 p.). Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
