Buddhist Legends, Part 1: Introduction, Synopses, Translation Of Books 1 And 2 (1921) is a book written by Buddhaghosa, a Buddhist scholar and commentator from ancient India. The book is divided into three parts, with the first part serving as an introduction to the legends and their significance in Buddhist culture. The second part provides synopses of the legends, which are stories about the Buddha and his disciples that illustrate Buddhist teachings and principles. The third part contains translations of the first two books of the legends, which are written in Pali, the language of the Theravada Buddhist tradition. The book provides insight into the rich history and mythology of Buddhism, and offers readers a deeper understanding of the religion's core beliefs and practices. Overall, Buddhist Legends, Part 1 is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Buddhism, its history, and its teachings.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
