A 3-part article. The first two parts have been posted already, while the third is yet to come.

http://indianphilosophyblog.org/2018/04 ... hey-are-1/

http://indianphilosophyblog.org/2018/04 ... hey-are-2/
Here's the third and final part of Lele's defence of his claim that the Theravada commentarial Abhidhamma is an ontological system:

http://indianphilosophyblog.org/2018/05 ... hey-are-3/
Let us now return to the larger picture. What does all this close and technical reading – in this post and the previous two – imply? Each time, we have looked closely at the same passages Heim and Ram-Prasad examine in their article. We have seen all three times that in these very passages Buddhaghosa is concerned not merely with phenomenology – how things appear – but with ontology, how things actually are. The reduction of a person or a chariot into aggregates or name-and-form has to do not merely with one’s inner meditative experience, but with the fact that the person or the chariot actually is made of the reduced elements. Seeing correctly is not a matter of eliminating views, but of having a view that corresponds to things as they are (yathābhūtadassana). And it is by taking that reductionist view, of things as they are, that one sees things in the higher, ultimate, way and not in the lesser way of mere convention. To be liberated from suffering, in Buddhaghosa’s view just as in Śāntideva’s, one must see things as they are; one must perceive reality correctly. One must, that is, be concerned with ontology and metaphysics.

She has given talks on historical and current textual and practice aspects of Theravada Buddhism including Abhidhamma, Buddha worship and Buddhist pedagogy. She has also undertaken intensive meditation practice within different meditation traditions for the past 10 years, and monastic training in Myanmar as a precept-nun in nunneries based at Pyay (formerly Prome) in 2007 and Sagaing in 2012. She has received traditional Abhidhamma training from experts in Abhidhamma studies from Burma for the past 4 years. She studied BA in Economics and Management at Oxford University from 2004 to 2008.

Her current research focuses on the living tradition of Abhidhamma, looking at the use of Abhidhamma in a variety of contemporary and recent historical settings associated with ritual, meditation, recitation, memorisation, and with pedagogic and mathematic practices. She has also been working on the relationship between Abhidhamma and Vipassanā meditation, exploring how and to what extent Abhidhamma are applied in meditation practices.

Only one, as far as I know: U Kyaw Khine's 1996 translation of the Dhammasaṅgaṇī.

In case you read German the first 4 books of the Abhidhamma plus Patisambhidamagga (and Vinaya) have been translated by Santuṭṭho Bhikkhu.
