More about the book
The narrative centers on the life of Prince Gautama Buddha before his enlightenment, exploring his journey and experiences. Upon its 1879 release, the retelling sparked significant controversy, with Eastern scholars criticizing its portrayal of Buddhist doctrine and Western Christians objecting to comparisons between Buddha and Jesus. This blend of cultural and religious tensions contributed to the book's lasting impact and notoriety in both scholarly and popular circles.
