    Description

    Taylor & Francis Ltd RELIGIONS OF THE EAST : by Stephen Hunt

    Under the rubric of Religions of the East which includes Buddhism Hinduism Sikhism Janiism and a myriad of Chinese religio-philosophies are a vast range of views concerning human sexuality. These contrasting attitudes are mapped through this volume on Religions of the East in The Library of Essays on Sexuality and Religion series. Part 1 presents previously-published articles that explore several Eastern Religions in the way they construct sexuality through expressions of their pertinent holy writings and belief systems as applied in differing historical and cultural contexts. Part 2 takes sexual renunciation and asceticism as its focus through the traditions of Hinduism Jainism and the Chinese religious systems. Part 3 explores the connection between sexuality gender and sexuality in Hindu and Buddhist customs in varied social settings. The final part of the volume includes articles examining Eastern religions in their attitudes towards sexual variants including bi-sexuality trans-sexuality and contested sexual categories.
