Zen enthralled the scholarly world throughout much of the twentieth century, and Zen Studies became a major academic discipline in its wake. Interpreted through the lens of Japanese Zen and its reaction to events in the modern world, Zen Studies incorporated a broad range of Zen-related movements in the East Asian Buddhist world. As broad as the scope of Zen Studies was, however, it was clearly rooted in a Japanese context, and aspects of the \"Zen experience\" that did not fit modern Japanese Zen aspirations tended to be marginalized and ignored. \u003ci\u003eApproaches to Chan, Sŏn, and Zen Studies\u003c\/i\u003e acknowledges the move beyond Zen Studies to recognize the changing and growing parameters of the field. The volume also examines the modern dynamics in each of these traditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAlbert Welter \u003c\/b\u003eis Professor and Head of the Department of East Asian Studies at the University of Arizona and the author of \u003ci\u003eThe Administration of Buddhism in China: A Study and Translation of Zanning and the Topical Compendium of the Buddhist Clergy\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cb\u003eSteven Heine \u003c\/b\u003eis Professor of Religious Studies and History and Director of Asian Studies at Florida International University and the author of \u003ci\u003eDogen: Japan's Original Zen Teacher\u003c\/i\u003e. \u003cb\u003eJin Y.
