520 |a The aim of this paper is to theorize broadly about how cultural encountersbetween Asian Buddhists and European Christians spurred various efforts to demarcate,systematize, and stabilize religious traditions. It focuses on the dynamics seen in Buddhistresponses to contact situations from the sixteenth century onwards in Sri Lanka, Cambodia,and Japan in order to map out some patterns of interaction among these communities. Theoriesof cultural imitation and independence do not suffice to theorize interreligious encountersin these cases. Using select examples, this paper will contend that Asian Buddhists oftenresponded to various kinds of European interventions by redefining and reimagining theBuddhist tradition in new ways in order to argue for its continued validity and to secure itsstability in the face of external encounters and pressures.
