GOLDEN LANDS, THE: ARCHITECTURE OF THE BUDDHIST WORLD: CAMBODIA, INDONESIA, LAOS

The first volume in the series The Golden Lands is devoted to Southeast Asia home to many of the most spectacular Buddhist monuments. Following a general introduction to the early history of Buddhism and its most characteristic architectural forms (the stupa the temple and the monastery) Lall examines the Buddhist architecture of Myanmar Vietnam Indonesia Cambodia Thailand and Laos in turn. For each country he provides both a historical overview and case studies of noteworthy structures. Lall s concise and accessible text is illustrated throughout with new colour photography as well as 3-D architectural renderings that make even the most complex structures easily comprehensible. The monuments that Lall considers in The Golden Lands range from the modest Bupaya stupa constructed in Bagan Myanmar in the third century AD to the vast complex of Borobudur in Central Java the world s largest Buddhist monument; his achievement is to place them all within a single panorama of history religion and artistic innovation.
