Dear Jiri,

The academic classic remains with Burlingame's Buddhist Legends (Harvard
Oriental Series). Vol 1 has a very good comparative study with other
canonical
sources, and a critical analysis of the Dhammapada stories. A good source of
critical ideas, if not the entertaining, educational and liberating stories.

With metta,

Piya Tan
