Format 24 x 17 cm (.1000 gr ). -------- 539 pages. ********************* "" This publication includes both a comprehensive catalogue as well as a first analysis of the Kanjur kept in the palace of Shey, Ladakh. This compilation of manually copied manuscripts not only offers unique insights into the local workings of Himalayan Buddhist manuscript production but also, as a collection of Buddhist canonical literature, figures as an important link in the translocal transmission of the Tibetan canon. Both of these aspects are addressed in the introduction, which discusses the features of the manuscripts, the information that can be gathered about their production, their textual contents, and the conclusions that can be drawn about the relationships to other Kanjurs. Considerations of the contents of the Shey Kanjur are informed by a detailed catalogue of the manuscripts, which forms the main part of this publication.

Couverture souple. Condición: Comme neuf. Edition originale. Vienne 2014. 1 Volume/1.-- N°86 -- As New / Comme Neuf -- Softbound /Broché collé . Format 24 x 17 cm (.680 gr ). -------- 355 pages. ********************* "" This book makes an important contribution to exploring the question of how knowledge of Buddhist India is appropriated and negotiated on the Tibetan plateau. It investigates the series of debates between the Rnying ma master 'Ju Mi pham (18461912) and his contemporary opponents from the Dge lugs school in particular Dpa' ris Rab gsal (18401912) that flared up in Eastern Tibet in the late nineteenth century and involved the major centres of Tibetan scholasticism in the almost thirty years of its development. The point of departure of these controversies was Mi pham's Nor bu ke ta ka, an innovative commentary on the ninth chapter of Śāntideva's (approx. eighth century) Bodhi(sattva)caryāvatāra (BCA), a work that the tradition regards as an authoritative presentation of Indian Madhyamaka thought. After the Buddhist religion spread to Tibet, it was this tradition that established itself as the pivotal philosophical system. Not only does its content form the ontological foundation of the Buddhist world view in Tibet, but a correct understanding of it is also commonly accepted as the prerequisite for any soteriological progress. Madhyamaka philosophy was therefore subject to considerable debate among Tibetan scholastics, of which the controversies around Mi pham's Nor bu ke ta ka are one of the most important testimonies. The study engages with these controversies in three parts: Part I ("Context of the controversies") explores the larger context of the debates, both in terms of literary genre, but also in its socio-historical dimension. In so doing, it helps to nuance our understanding of the intellectual history of the nineteenth century, a crucial period in which a tension between Dge lugs and non-Dge lugs scholastic traditions (the "ris med movement") has been often simplistically seen as an important background for the debates. The second part ("Main part: the debate between Mi pham and Rab gsal") focuses on the critical treatises that were exchanged between Mi pham and Rab gsal. Based on this material, the study outlines the key issues of the controversy, which are related to four different passages of the BCA: Topic I concerns the interpretation of BCA IX.1, Topic II that of BCA IX.78. Both of these topics pertain mostly to personal differences in the literal interpretation of the respective passages, and are thus treated rather briefly. In contrast, Topic III, connected to BCA IX.41-49, and Topic IV, connected to BCA IX.2, are both related to fundamental differences in the respective scholastic traditions concerning the understanding of core concepts of Madhyamaka philosophy, which are discussed at great length. For each topic, its respective background is outlined and followed up by an investigation into the dynamic development of the debate, which proceeds by tracing the exchange of arguments across the confines of individual texts. The last section ("Supplementary material") is intended as a complement for the specialist working on this material. It provides a detailed and comprehensive structural analysis of the analysed texts down to the level of individual arguments and makes these structures and the connections between arguments in different textual layers explicit in various overview charts.

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware -This book grew out of an Austrian Science Fund project dedicated to the scientific legacy of the Tibetologist and ethnologist René Nebesky-Wojkowitz (1923-1959). The starting point was a 2019 symposium at the Weltmuseum Wien, which dealt with the reception history of his various research works. Newly accessible materials on his life and scholarship significantly enriched the contributions. The volume thus offers fresh insights into the research conditions in the Himalayas of the 1950s as well as into Nebesky-Wojkowitz's international academic network. A pioneer of Himalayan studies, he combined ethnographic fieldwork with philological textual research. His interdisciplinary approach made him an early 'Ethno-Tibetologist' and influenced later generations of scholars, especially in Vienna, where important studies on mountain deities, rituals, and everyday religious practice were produced. His work was strongly shaped by the political transformations of his time: following the end of colonial rule in India, he began his field research in Kalimpong, West Bengal, and later continued it in Nepal, which had only recently opened to foreign researchers. The book's twelve contributions are divided into three parts: the first deals with Nebesky-Wojkowitz as a person and scholar; the second examines his work in India and Nepal and its local reception; and the third explores current research that follows in his footsteps. An epilogue outlines the state of Himalayan studies during his lifetime and their subsequent development. Altogether, the volume illustrates why Nebesky-Wojkowitz still holds a distinctive place in the history of Tibetan and Himalayan studies. 357 pp. Englisch.…
