Texts and Translations of Transcendence and Transformation

Texts and Translations of Transcendence and Transformation (4T) is a new series featuring translations of important visionary and mystical texts—some of them are little known, and some better known but deserving of fresh attention. All the texts in this series are pre-modern, and hail from as far west as Morocco and as far east as China, and in between along the Silk Road, including parts of Africa and South Asia. Books in this series will be laid out in facing pages: the source language on the left, the English translation on the right, both accompanied by interpretive aids, and all of it produced with great attention to layout and typography. Each book will be made freely available in an open-access digital format, and for purchase as a finely crafted print book with the highest quality paper and binding, published by Harvard’s Center for the Study of World Religions and distributed by Harvard University Press.
