Jātaka stories in Theravāda Buddhism

narrating the Bodhisatta path

Jakata stories (stories about the previous births of the Buddha) are very popular in Theravada Buddhist countries. This book explores the shifting role of the stories in Buddhist doctrine, practice and creative expression, finally placing this integral Buddhist genre back in the centre of scholarly understandings of the religion.
