520    "This deft and lively study by Robert DeCaroli explores 
       the questions of how and why the earliest verifiable 
       images of the historical Buddha were created. In so doing,
       DeCaroli steps away from old questions of where and when 
       to present the history of Buddhism's relationship with 
       figural art as an ongoing set of negotiations within the 
       Buddhist community and in society at large. By comparing 
       innovations in Brahmanical, Jain, and royal artistic 
       practice, DeCaroli examines why no image of the Buddha was
       made until approximately five hundred years after his 
       death and what changed in the centuries surrounding the 
       start of the Common Era to suddenly make those images 
       desirable and acceptable. The textual and archaeological 
       sources reveal that figural likenesses held special 
       importance in South Asia and were seen as having a 
       significant amount of agency and power. Anxiety over image
       use extended well beyond the Buddhists, helping to explain
       why images of Vedic gods, Jain teachers, and political 
       elites also are absent from the material record of the 
       centuries BCE. DeCaroli shows how the emergence of 
       powerful dynasties and rulers, who benefited from novel 
       modes of visual authority, was at the root of the changes 
       in attitude toward figural images. However, as DeCaroli 
       demonstrates, a strain of unease with figural art 
       persisted, even after a tradition of images of the Buddha 
       had become established."--Publisher's description
