About The Author

Shayne Clarke is an associate professor in McMaster University’s Department of Religious Studies. He is a specialist in the study of Indian Buddhist monastic law (Vinaya), working primarily on legal texts—both canonical and commentarial—preserved in Sanskrit, Tibetan, and Chinese. The author of Family Matters in Indian Buddhist Monasticisms (2014), he aims to recover, among other things, lost voices and views from premodern sources, including those related to pregnant nuns and monastic mothers: Buddhist monasticism, but not as we have generally imagined it.
