Fathering Your Father
Offers a rereading of the early history of Chan Buddhism (Zen). This work focuses on the narrative logics of the early Chan genealogies - the seventh-and eighth-century lineage texts that claimed that certain high-profile Chinese men were descendents of Bodhidharma and the Buddha.
