Buddha and the Bard: Where Shakespeare's Stage Meets Buddhist Scriptures by Shufran, Lauren

The Buddha and the Bard by Lauren Shufran brings Shakespearean quotations into conversation with Buddhist scripture. The pairings explore the human condition, inner experience and the roles people play in life.

These literary and contemplative reflections invite both close reading and personal inquiry. A creative encounter between traditions, not a claim that Shakespeare was a Buddhist or a collection of his complete plays.
