About
Eric Huntington is an interdisciplinary scholar of Buddhist studies. He employs methods from religious studies, art history, and area studies to investigate complex topics of doctrine, ritual, philosophy, and visual and material culture. Specializing in Southern and Central Asia, he also addresses issues of transnational connection and comparison. His work traces long histories and contrasts disparate traditions to understand better both widespread features of religion and the unique ideas, practices, and objects of specific cultural contexts.
