Lives of the Nuns: Biographies of Chinese Buddhist Nuns from the Fourth to Sixth Centuries
by Kathryn Ann Tsai
"The translation itself is impeccable. The English reads smoothly, and problem passages are duly discussed in the footnotes.... With Kathryn Tsai's reliable translation, scholars from various fields can now begin to venture into this evasive confluence of gender, history, and hagiography." --China Review International, Fall 1994
