Apologies for any crossposting. I would like to draw the attention of the list to this upcoming workshop in Munich. I, among others, would very much like to see abstracts sent from those working on Buddhist commentarial literature produced in the South Asia, Central Asia, and the Himalayan region.

The Doctoral Program in Buddhist Studies at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität, München is pleased to announce a call for papers for the workshop "Layers of Interpretation - Commentarial Practices Throughout Buddhist Textual Traditions,"

to be held on June 15-16, 2018 in Munich, Germany, with keynote addresses by Prof. Rupert Gethin (University of Bristol) and Prof. Alexander Mayer (University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign).

We invite applications from both established and early career scholars, including PhD students.

The deadline for applications is November 15, 2017.
