[International Cooperation] To Enhance Taiwan's International Visibility, NCCU Invites Globally Outstanding Buddhism Study Researchers to An International Workshop
Prof. Chen-kuo LIN, Dept. of Philosophy, NCCU
NCCU Campus News (2009/10/17) Professor Chen-kuo LIN, Dept. of Philosophy at National Chengchi University, has obtained NSC's sponsorship for the three-year talent cultivation project "Indian Buddhist Thought in the 6th-7th Century China." Via the project, NCCU will invite many globally outstanding scholars of Buddhist studies to form an international workshop.
Chen-kuo LIN points out, Buddhist studies have been through rapid expansion during the late eighties to nineties, and now an academic community with certain scale has been formed in the world. Buddhism is one major pan-Asian religion as well as philosophical tradition; linguistic studies in terms of Sanskrit, Tibetan and Chinese, are deeply involved. Buddhist studies have become a field highly international and cross-disciplinary. Europe is the current center for Buddhist studies; Japan and the US are chasing on behind. The findings in these countries are very influential to Taiwan scholars. Chen-kuo LIN says, NCCU has comprehensive academic groups in this field, including Department of Philosophy and Department of Religion etc.; it also has scholars deep into Indian Buddhism. Hence NCCU is very suitable to carry out the task of integrating the relevant academic capacities in Taiwan. The project aims at introducing Taiwan's Buddhist studies to the world. With the topic "Indian Buddhist Thought in the 6th-7th Century China," NCCU invites most of the significant scholars of Buddhist studies in the world to form an international research team, also closely cooperated with the local scholars. The result will be presented in form of monographs in English.
