      Ascetic Self

      Today's Price £36.41



      Product Description

      Describes the ascetic self in the scriptural religions of Christianity, Buddhism and Hinduism. This book claims that asceticism can be understood as the internalisation of tradition, the shaping of the narrative of a life in accordance with the narrative of tradition that might be seen as the performance of the memory of tradition.
