The Dalai Lama has represented Buddhism as a religion of non-violence, compassion, and world peace, but this does not reflect how monks learn their vocation. This book shows how monasteries use harsh methods to make monks of men, and how this tradition is changing as modernist reformers—like the Dalai Lama—adopt liberal and democratic ideals, such as natural rights and individual autonomy. In the first in-depth account of disciplinary practices at a Tibetan monastery in India, Michael Lempert looks closely at everyday education rites—from debate to reprimand and corporal punishment. His analysis explores how the idioms of violence inscribed in these socialization rites help produce educated, moral persons but in ways that trouble Tibetans who aspire to modernity. Bringing the study of language and social interaction to our understanding of Buddhism for the first time, Lempert shows and why liberal ideals are being acted out by monks in India, offering a provocative alternative view of liberalism as a globalizing discourse.
心情复杂地读完,mimicry的用法在这里恐怕要引起很大争议了
评分原创性很好,描绘特别简略却又艰涩。比较欣赏他在理论上恢复sympathy的民族志潜力,由于对语言人类学的scale等概念不是特别熟悉,所以也不确定他论证的力量。另外,很喜欢他强调人们通过身体来与彼此与世界建立某种认知关系和实践行为,这种现象学的路径很值得推荐。
