The Social Life of Tibetan Biography outlines the growth of the Buddhist tradition of the Tibetan teacher Tokden Shakya Shri (1853-1919) through charting his biographical tradition and its influence on the development of his community. Tokden Shakya Shri's tradition is an important exemplar of interpersonal exchange on the margins between East and South Asia, connections between text and social community, and the diversity of Tibetan Buddhist practice and institutional forms at the turn of the twentieth century.

Amy Holmes-Tagchungdarpa is assistant professor in the Department of Religious Studies at Grinnell College.
