sentences:  In a review of 2003, Jon S. Walters defended the "Gombrichian" approach to textual tradition against the view attributed to Anne M. Blackburn that "colonial/Orientialist" scholarship is "epitomized here by Richard Gombrich".Whereas the earlier usage of "Gombrichian" seems to indicate a theory specifically set out by Ernst Gombrich in "Art as Illusion", the usage of Gombrichian in the context of Buddhist Studies refers more vaguely to an emphasis on working with comparative reference to primary-source Pali texts found throughout Richard Gombrich's career.Gombrich has taught at Oxford for over 40 years and continues to do some teaching in retirement.
