Senior scholars and former students celebrate the life and work of Janet Gyatso, professor of Buddhist studies at Harvard Divinity School. Inspired by her contributions to life writing, Tibetan medicine, gender studies, and more, these offerings make a rich feast for readers interested in Tibetan and Buddhist studies.

Janet Gyatso has made substantial, influential, and incredibly valuable contributions to the fields of Buddhist and Tibetan studies. Her paradigm-shifting approach is to take a topic, an idea, a text, a termoften one that had long been taken for granted or overlookedand turn it inside out, to radically reimagine the kinds of questions that might be asked and what the answers might reveal. The twenty-nine essays in this volume, authored by colleagues and former studentsmany of whom are now also colleaguesrepresent the breadth of her interests and influence and the care that she has taken in training the current generation of scholars of Tibet and Buddhism. They are organized into five sections: Women, Gender, and Sexuality  Biography and Autobiography  the Nyingma Imaginaire  Literature, Art, and Poetry  and Early Modernity: Human and Nonhuman Worlds. Contributions include Jos Cabezn on the incorporation of a Buddhist rock carving in Central Asian culture  Matthew Kapstein on the memoirs of an ambivalent reincarnated lama  Willa Baker on Jikm Lingpas theory of absence  Andrew Quintman on a found poem expressing worldly sadness on the forced closure of a monastery  and Padma tsho on Tibetan womens advocacy for full female ordination. These and the many other chapters, each fascinating reads in their own right, together offer a glowing tribute to a scholar who indelibly changed the way we think about Buddhism, its history, and its literature.
