This project examines representations of the Eight Great Events of the Buddha's Life and their Commemorative Stupas in the Medieval Art of Tibet as a visual and religious theme. The Eight Great Events' images were most prominent in India during the Pala period (8 th-12th century) and in the medieval art of numerous Buddhist countries. Various forms of these representations feature the scene of the Buddha's Enlightenment as central, surrounded by remaining scenes of the events and reflect symbolic and religious connotations of later Buddhist tradition, including esoteric. Textual sources on the Eight Great Events directly associate the main even, the Buddha's Enlightenment, with the sacred site of its occurrence Vajrasana and the other events with their respective sites as well.

520 $a This project examines representations of the Eight Great Events of the Buddha's Life and their Commemorative Stupas in the Medieval Art of Tibet as a visual and religious theme. The Eight Great Events' images were most prominent in India during the Pala period (8 th-12th century) and in the medieval art of numerous Buddhist countries. Various forms of these representations feature the scene of the Buddha's Enlightenment as central, surrounded by remaining scenes of the events and reflect symbolic and religious connotations of later Buddhist tradition, including esoteric. Textual sources on the Eight Great Events directly associate the main even, the Buddha's Enlightenment, with the sacred site of its occurrence Vajrasana and the other events with their respective sites as well.
520 $a I argue that this theme's representations were central to the process of active assimilation of Indian Buddhist culture and formation of Tibetan religious traditions during the period known as the Renaissance of Buddhist culture in Tibet (10th - 13th centuries). Founders of new Tibetan institutions were establishing their own authority and sanctity through affinity with the Indian sacred sites, purposefully utilizing various artistic forms of the Eight Great Events' representations, reinterpreting their symbolic and religious connotations, and eventually "reproducing" them in the form and image of their stupa-monuments. The representations, especially those that articulate the three-dimensional, or man&dotbelow;d&dotbelow;ala-like layout of the events and emphasize commemorative stupas, suggest that the convention of representing the Eight Great Events came to signify India as the central place where the Eight Great Events occurred and eventually reproduce the sacred sites in their physical form but on a different soil, in Tibet.
520 $a This project considers these representations in all their media and in relation to related textual traditions as well. Affinities between Indian and Tibetan representations are interpreted as expressions of a common religious and visual convention that found specific applications in Tibet, not merely in terms of Indian artistic influences. The inquiry crosses geographic and disciplinary boundaries and integrates visual and textual material within the specific context of this period, which, despite the importance of this theme, has not been done in the past.
