Zen Sanctuary of Purple Robes - Japan's Tokeiji Convent Since 1285

"This cultural history of the famous Tokeiji Convent is rich in detail and generous in providing translations of the prose and poetry speaking to both its Rinzai Zen cult and its popular reputation as a sanctuary for women escaping from abusive marriages. This is engaged scholarship."
