Brill’s Encyclopedia of Buddhism is the first comprehensive academic reference work devoted to the plurality of Buddhist traditions across Asia, offering readers a balanced and detailed treatment of this complex phenomenon in eight thematically arranged volumes: Literature and Languages (I, publ. 2015), Lives (II, publ. 2019), Thought: Traditions (III-1, forthcoming), Thought: Doctrines and Concepts (III-2, forthcoming), History: South Asia (IV-1, forthcoming), History: Central and East Asia (IV-2, publ. 2023), Practice (V, forthcoming), Index and Remaining Issues (VI, forthcoming).
Each volume contains substantial original essays by many of the world’s foremost scholars, essays which not only cover basic information and well-known issues but which also venture into areas as yet untouched by modern scholarship. An essential tool for anyone interested in Buddhism.
Brill's Encyclopedia of Buddhism is also available online Brill's Encyclopedia of Buddhism Online, with new volumes added following their original publication in print.
Brill’s Encyclopedia of Buddhism is under the general editorial control of Jonathan Silk (Leiden University, editor-in-chief). Each volume has a dedicated board of specialist editors and in later volumes also a volume editor; in the series so far this includes Richard Bowring (University of Cambridge), Vincent Eltschinger (École Pratique des Hautes Études, Paris), Oskar von Hinuber (Albert-Ludwigs University of Freiburg) and Michael Radich (Heidelberg University).
