SUMMARY:The Shobogenzo in Translation\, Online 3/11–4/1
DESCRIPTION:The Zoom link to participate in this event will be provided at least 24 hours before it begins. Please call 415-354-0360 if you have any questions. \n\nFour Thursdays\, March 11–April 1\, 4:00–5:30 pm PT / 7:00–8:30 pm ET \nHow does the translation we read shape our understanding of Dogen? \nThe growing worldwide interest in Dogen’s Shobogenzo has produced six complete English translations\, along with numerous versions in European and Asian languages. Each translation approaches this famously challenging and evocative work differently\, offering readers distinct pathways into Dogen’s language and teaching. \nIn this four-session course\, we will focus particularly on two major English editions: the widely-read translation produced by Kazuaki Tanahashi and a group of collaborators\, and the recent eight-volume translation by the Soto Zen Text Project. \nBoth are immensely valuable\, but they differ in their source texts\, organization\, treatment of chronology\, and approach to annotation. The course’s primary focus will be “Ikka Myoju” (One Bright Pearl)\, “Inmo” (Suchness)\, “Komyo” (Radiant Light)\, “Shunju” (Spring and Autumn)\, and “Sansuikyo” (Mountains and Rivers Sutras)\, while ranging more widely where helpful for exploring questions of translation and interpretation. \nTogether\, we will: \n\nSurvey the history and variety of English translations of the Shobogenzo since the 1970s.\nCompare how the Tanahashi and Soto Zen Text Project editions approach several exemplary fascicles.\nExplore how significant passages have been rendered differently across translations.\nDevelop practical ways of consulting multiple translations to engage Doogen’s subtle and paradoxical writing with greater confidence and appreciation.\n\nThrough close reading and discussion\, participants in this four-session online class will gain a clearer understanding of how translation choices shape our encounter with Dogen\, as well as new tools for approaching the Shobogenzo in their own study and practice.  \nRecordings:All course sessions will be recorded\, and registered participants will receive temporary access to the recordings for later viewing.
