In den WarenkorbRare first edition, the copy of the co-translator's older sister, with her ownership signature on the front free endpaper and later presentation inscription: "Michael, In memory of Rangoon, E. M. Luce-Clausen." The recipient, the Burma scholar Edward Michael Mendelson, has added his signature, dated 1959, below. For this transla…tion of a key Burmese historical text, G. H. Luce (1888-1979) - "among the most influential and important scholars of Burmese art and history" (DeCaroli, p. 155) - collaborated with his brother-in-law, Pe Maung Tin, a fellow academic at Rangoon University. Ethel Marjorie Luce-Clausen (1887-1966) pursued a career as a biologist in the United States. In 1958, she travelled to Rangoon, where her brother lived until 1964. Her visit overlapped with that of the young Mendelson (1928-2024), who was conducting field research in the early stages of a successful career as a sociologist. Mendelson's marginalia is found throughout this copy, while above the inscription is an old red ink stamp, likely added by Luce-Clausen. Robert DeCaroli, Haunting the Buddha: Indian Popular Religions and the Formation of Buddhism, 2004. Octavo. Frontispiece map. Original red cloth, spine lettered in gilt, boards panelled in blind. Spine sunned, a few marks to boards, extremities lightly worn: very good.
