Halle O’Neal is Chancellor’s Fellow and Lecturer at the Edinburgh College of Art, University of Edinburgh, Scotland.
O’Neal’s new book untangles these mandalas’ visual and performative
complexity. Impressively researched and broadly conceived, the five
chapters of this study investigate the key aspects of the jeweled
pagoda mandalas’ composition, their textual and visual content, and
the historical and cross-cultural contexts of their production…The
feast of visual material investigated in O’Neal’s book is so
rich.
*Journal of Japanese Studies*
Lively, provocative, and ambitious…Stands out as a very impressive,
well-researched, satisfying, and nearly exhaustive study of
relatively undocumented paintings and their historical
circumstances…Serves in many ways as a model for scholarship on
premodern Japanese Buddhist icons.
*Monumenta Nipponica*
