Autorenporträt
Roderick S. Bucknell holds a doctorate in Chinese linguistics and is an Honorary Associate Professor of Religious Studies at the University of Queensland, where for eighteen years - prior to his retirement - he taught Chinese and Buddhist studies. Having become interested in the techniques of insight meditation on an earlier visit to the country, he was formerly (from 1967-71) a bhikkhu (Buddhist monk) based in Thailand. His previous works include The Twilight Language: Explorations in Buddhist Meditation and Symbolism (1995, co-authored with Martin Stuart-Fox, who has edited and provided the Postscript to the present volume) and Sanskrit Manual: A Quick Reference Guide to the Phonology and Grammar of Classical Sanskrit (2010).
