Autorenporträt

Daisetsu Teitaro Suzuki (1870-1966) is credited with introducing the West to Zen Buddhism. Suzuki pursued his religious and philosophical studies at Tokyo University. After a ten-year sojourn in the United States, where he worked as an editor of Oriental Studies for Open Court Press, Suzuki returned to his native Japan where he undertook the translation of Swedenborg's works into Japanese. Throughout his long life, this Buddhist scholar taught at colleges in Japan, the United States, and Europe, including Columbia, Yale, Harvard, Cambridge, and Oxford. His works are collected in the 32-volume Suzuki Daisetsu Zenshu. Among his works available in English are Essays in Zen Buddhism, Mysticism: Christian and Buddhist, and Zen and Japanese Culture.
