Description and Table of Contents

Description

This volume, the twelfth project of the English Translation Committee of the Nichirenshu Overseas Propagation Promotion Association (NOPPA), constitutes all twenty-seven writings of Buddhist reformer Nichiren Shonin (1222-1282) included in the ""Nichiren Shonin Zenshu"" (Complete Writings of Nichiren Shonin), ""Volume IV: Faith and Practice"", published in Tokyo in 1993. The ""Nichiren Shonin Zenshu"" is a modern Japanese version of Nichiren's original writings, translated and edited with annotations by modern scholars of Nichiren Buddhism. Despite its all-inclusive titles, the ""Zenshu"" is highly selective in that it takes into account only writings considered bibliographically authentic (i.e., attested to by original manuscripts). Among such texts, those included in the ""Showa Teihon Nichiren Shonin Ibun"" (Writings of Nichiren Shonin Standardized in the Showa Period) are considered the most authoritative, and they provide the basic texts for this volume.
