Gotamī’s Story
Bones, Stones and Buddhist Monks: Collected Papers on the Archaeology, Epigraphy and Texts of Monastic Buddhism in India. Gregory Schopen
Buddhist History: The Sri Lankan Pāli Vaṃsas and Their Commentary
For more than a century scholars have relied upon the Pali Vaṃsas—Dīpavaṃsa (Dpv), the “Chronicle of the Island” (early fourth century), Mahāvaṃsa (Mhv), the “Great Chronicle” (a fifth-century revision of Dīpavaṃsa), and Vaṃsatthappakāsinf (VAP), the “early medieval” commentary on Mahavaṃsa—as “primary sources.” From them they have gleaned countless “historical facts” now to be found in the histories of ancient India and Sri Lanka.

Dreams and Suicides analyses the cultural symptoms and attitudes por…
