Buddhist Studies Review 35 (2018) (request)

[sphairos]

Dhamma friends and researchers,

I wonder if anyone could help me with access to that issue of BSR, as none of the nearby libraries seem to have it or provide access to it ?

In particular, I'm interested in M. Allon's and P. Harvey's papers.

Thanks, DooDoot, I know, but doesn't seem the best idea to pay 30 - 50 bucks for a few articles...

Although it looks more and more like the only solution, because the journal is simply not available for access through any standard means...

[DooDoot]

30 - 50 bucks

Yes. Very costly.

but doesn't seem the best idea to pay 30 - 50 bucks for a few articles...

Individual articles are GBP 5 on that site, so if you really need them ...

As far as I have been able to determine so far, there is simply no printed issue of the last volume of the journal.

But they are publishing it as a collection of essays , on the first of October:

This is now published in its online version ( https://journals.equinoxpub.com/index.p ... ue/archive ) and will then appear in its print version. In September, the contents will also appear in book form as Buddhist Path, Buddhist Teachings: Studies in Memory of L.S. Cousins, published by Equinox, less the book reviews but including 'Lance Cousins: An Obituary, Appreciation and Bibliography', an updated version of what has previously appeared in Buddhist Studies Review .

https://networks.h-net.org/node/6060/di ... uble-issue

This collection brings together scholarly contributions relating to the research of Lance Cousins (1942-2015), an influential and prolific scholar of early Buddhism.

It seems, It's worth waiting a little while and buying the whole pack of them for 30 bucks, than getting 3-4 online articles for the same price.

Actually, it's 5.95 , with VAT...

I am in Thailand where the price is GB 5.00. I was interested as to why it is a higher price for you, so used VPN to switch to a UK IP address. Subsequently, the price became GB 5.00 + VAT GB 1.00

This one is available from Peter Harvey's academia.edu page.
