Kōichi Shinohara (篠原亨一; 1941–) is a scholar in the field of East Asian Buddhist Studies. He taught at McMaster University and Yale University for years before retiring from the latter in 2014. His work covers a broad range of topics including Chinese Buddhist hagiography, monasticism, and Buddhist narrative literature. He is especially known for his study on the works of Daoxuan 道宣 (596–667), an important Chinese Buddhist historian and vinaya master, and Daoshi 道世 (?–683), a collaborator with Daoxuan. In addition, Koichi Shinohara has co-edited, with Phyllis Granoff, several influential collections of articles. His monograph Spell, Images, and Maṇḍalas: Tracing the Evolution of Esoteric Buddhist Rituals is a chef d’ouvre that engages deeply with Chinese Buddhist sources and succeeds in clarifying the history of early esoteric rituals. The book enjoys a monumental importance and garnered the Prix Stanislas Julien in 2015, widely hailed to be the “Nobel Prize” of Chinese Studies.
