/lit/ - Literature

hollander and bellows are both worth reading. bellows is the version tolkien read, if youre interested in norse myths connections to modern fantasy. its a bit difficult to get into any translation however, its a very archaic and cryptic text and takes a while to comprehend. read the notes and annotations and look up anything thats not explained well.

/his/ somehow manages to be more pretentious and pseudointellectual than /lit/. for some reason we've always had good discussions on buddhism here, probably because the sanskrit words scare off the people who just want to post memes

what are some good books about buddhist history/practices/hagiographies. i dont give a fuck about buddhist theology or philosophy.

tibetan, early indian, therevada, chinese, japanese, mongolian, im interested in them all
