It is at this point that Tambiah reconstructs a brief history of Sri-Lanka and infuses it with the Buddhist elements which nuance the conflicts. Buddhists address their lack of schools with the creation of two Buddhist universities in and education becomes more attainable for those rural and lower class individuals. Because of this, it is questionable as to whether the author can assume that it would be fitting for general readership, but the author does relay that Buddhism Betrayed provides for the specialist as well 3.

Foreword erna brodber One afternoon when I was six and in standard 2, sitting quietly while the teacher, Mr. Grant, wrote our assignment on the blackboard, I heard a girl scream as if she were frightened. Mr. Grant must have heard it, too, for he turned as if to see whether that frightened scream had come from one of us, his charges. My classmates looked at me. Which wasn’t strange: I had a reputation for knowing the answer. They must have thought I would know about the scream. As it happened, all I could think about was how strange, just at the time when I needed it, the girl had screamed. I had been swimming through the clouds, unwillingly connected to a small party of adults who were purposefully going somewhere, a destination I sud- denly sensed meant danger for me. Naturally I didn’t want to go any further with them, but I didn’t know how to communicate this to adults and ones intent on doing me harm.

    A British Reflection: the Relationship between Dante’s Comedy and the Italian Fascist Movement and Regime during the 1920s and 1930s with references to the Risorgimento. Keon Esky A thesis submitted in fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences. University of Sydney 2016 KEON ESKY Fig. 1 Raffaello Sanzio, ‘La Disputa’ (detail) 1510-11, Fresco - Stanza della Segnatura, Palazzi Pontifici, Vatican. KEON ESKY ii I dedicate this thesis to my late father who would have wanted me to embark on such a journey, and to my partner who with patience and love has never stopped believing that I could do it. KEON ESKY iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis owes a debt of gratitude to many people in many different countries, and indeed continents. They have all contributed in various measures to the completion of this endeavour. However, this study is deeply indebted first and foremost to my supervisor Dr. Francesco Borghesi. Without his assistance throughout these many years, this thesis would not have been possible. For his support, patience, motivation, and vast knowledge I shall be forever thankful. He truly was my Virgil. Besides my supervisor, I would like to thank the whole Department of Italian Studies at the University of Sydney, who have patiently worked with me and assisted me when I needed it. My sincere thanks go to Dr. Rubino and the rest of the committees that in the years have formed the panel for the Annual Reviews for their insightful comments and encouragement, but equally for their firm questioning, which helped me widening the scope of my research and accept other perspectives.

  • Book Reviews
    BOOK REVIEWS G. E.R. LLOYD, Demystifying Mentalities [Themes in the Social Sciences], Cambridge etc.: Cambridge University Press 1990. viii, 156 pp., Bibliography Index. £27.50/£10.95//$49.50/$14.95. Geoffrey Lloyd belongs to that illustrious line of Cambridge classicists who have found anthropology useful for their own work and have then contributed to it. The value of this contribution has been duly recognized by anthropo]ogists, who have asked him to give some of their most important lectures. Two of the four chapters that constitute this book were, in their original form, the 1985 Rivers lecture at Cambridge and the 1987 Frazer lecture in Oxford. Not surprisingly then, this work addresses a question of central interest to anthropologists: 'What is the validity and usefulness of the notion of mentalities?' (p. 1). Lloyd points out that although Uvy-Bruhl's distinction between two 'mentalities' has been much criticized, in fact the idea of different mentalities has been widely adopted in many disciplines, especially in France. The problem is that there is no definition of 'mentality', and the term is used in a variety of senses. Furthermore, which criteria are to be employed in distinguishing between different mentalities is not clear, nor has the question of how mentalities change been addressed. Lloyd sets out to examine the whole question with reference to classical Greek thought, which is so often regarded as the origin of our own scientific rationality. He also attempts to place the development of the ideas within the political and economic setting of the period, so that they are rooted in a particular social context.

    RELIGION 101 EXPLORING RELIGIONS BULLETIN INFORMATION RELG 101 – Exploring Religions (3 credit hrs) Course Description: Introduction to the beliefs and practices of the world’s religions and to the methods scholars use to study them. SAMPLE COURSE OVERVIEW This course introduces students to the range and variety within the world’s religions. Students will gain familiarity with the distinctive doctrines, rituals, festivals, and transformative practices of specific religious traditions, both past and present, as well as with selected themes and ideas shared by many different traditions. The course serves as an introduction to various approaches in the academic study of religion. Using the insights of disciplines such as anthropology, sociology, and cultural studies, students will learn to read religious texts critically and to analyze the ways that the ethical and metaphysical assumptions of religious traditions influence contemporary social and political activities. Readings, lectures, discussions, and other in-class activities encourage students to consider how individuals and groups organize themselves around beliefs in the existence of god/s, spirits, and ancestors, and how recourse to such posited agents affects the legitimacy, authority, and authenticity of particular practices and institutions. ITEMIZED LEARNING OUTCOMES Upon successful completion of RELG 101, students will be able to: 1. Recognize and describe the key ideas and practices of several religious traditions 2. Discuss the ways in which human behavior is shaped by beliefs in a divine being or beings, spirits, ancestors, or other non-empirical agents 3. Read religious texts critically and analyze and compare specific examples of religious discourse 4. Analyze and compare specific examples of religious social formation 5.

The Concept of 'Dhamma' in Thai Buddhism: A Study in the Thought of Vajiranana and Buddhadasa Abstract Dhamma is one of the most important and most difficult concepts in Pali Buddhism. Its significance lies in the fact that the term points to both the essence and the goal of Buddhism. Its ambiguity, however, results from the variety of the term's interpretations depending on its contexts. This dissertation analyzes the concept of dhamma in the writings of the two foremost interpreters of Thai Buddhism in the modern and contemporary periods, Vajiranana (1860-1921) and Buddhadasa (1906- ), who, in differing ways, attempt to recover the original teaching of the Buddha's dhamma. The study first describes the anger of meanings of the term in the Pali canonical materials, and selected western interpreters, before focusing on its normative and popular significance in Thai Buddhism. After discussing the historical context in which Vajiranana and Buddhadasa have worked, the dissertation then provides a detailed exposition of their interpretations of dhamma.
