Dhammapada - A Translation - Thanissaro Bhikkhu.epub

The Dhammapada, an anthology of verses attributed to the Buddha, has long been recognized as one of the masterpieces of early Buddhist literature. Only more recently have scholors realized that it is also one of the early masterpeces in the Indian tradition of kavya, or belles lettres. -- This new translation of the Dhammapada is an attempt to render the verses into English in a way that does justice to both of the traditions to which the text belongs, something that not all earlier translations attempted or were successful in achieving.
