Scholars of religion generally and Buddhism in particular, of art and art conservation, and of Asian literature and culture explore various aspects of the ideology, practice, and tradition of committing the teachings of Buddha to writing, which began around the first century BCE. They discuss such topics as why the Gandharan Buddhists buried their manuscripts, diverse aspects of the Mongolian Buddhist manuscript culture and realms of its influence, Chan letters in their manuscript context between Zhongfeng Mingben and Zhao Mengfu, and painted Buddhist palm leaf manuscript covers of Sri Lanka.
