SUMMARY:The Historical Chindian Paradigm
DESCRIPTION:A presentation and talk by Tan Chung; moderated by Professor L.H.M. Ling\, Graduate Program in International Affairs\, The New School It is hard to overstate the influence that India and China have had on each other\, from the introduction of Buddhism into Chinese society\, to their rapid and concurrent development in modern times. Yet their two thousand years of interaction has been short-changed in academic circles\, covered in not nearly the same depth as the relatively recent invasion of Western powers. Professor Tan’s talk will address these and other discrepancies\, focusing on the acculturation of Buddhism into Chinese society. \n\n\n\nProfessor Tan Chung is an Academic Associate at the University of Chicago and an Emeritus Member at the Institute of Chinese Studies in New Delhi. A legendary figure among Asian scholars\, he has published countless articles and over fifteen books in Chinese and English\, including”Across the Himalayan Gap: An Indian Quest for Understanding China” and “Rise of Asian Giants: The Dragon-Elephant Tango.”
