Theravada Studies at AAS (but not in the AAS program): MK Long, Olivia Porter, Tony Scott papers

For reasons that escape us, AAS has not listed the papers at the Theravada studies meeting in their program, and there is a risk that people attending (or not) may not know about them. Risk averted!:

Saturday 3/26, 2:15-3:45 (Hawai’i time); room 306A (zoom link TBA)

  • Mary Kate Long, “Reconsidering Renunciation: Models of Practice and Devotion in Biographies of Myanmar Buddhist Women”
  • Olivia Porter, “Thai Zawti Theravada Buddhist Tradition in the Myanmar-China Border”
  • Anthony Scott, “The Optics of Enlightenment: Capturing Nirvana in Twentieth-Century Southeast Asia”

See here for more information and it is now on our calendar as well, which you can see here.
