The Amnye Ma-chhen range and adjacent regions. A monographic study
Roma: Instituto Italiano oer Il Medio ed Estremo Oriente 1956. First edition small 4to pp. ix 3 194 plus 82 plates 2 folding each with a descriptive leaf of text; 5 folding maps printed in color in rear cover pocket; one corner bumped else fine in original gray printed boards. The Amne Machin range runs in the general northwest-to-southeast direction in eastern Qinghai Golog Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture and the adjacent areas of the Hainan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture and the southwestern corner of Gansu's Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture. Rock Honorary Research Associate Far Eastern and Russian Institute University of Washington is one of the great explorers of the last half of the 20th century. He "was first sent to China in the early 1920s by the United States Department of Agriculture U.S.D.A. to collect seeds of a tree that later were used in the treatment of leprosy. His explorations resulted in the introduction of conifers rhododendrons 493 species potentilla and primula to the U.S. Nonetheless biographer Hubert Rhodes wrote in 1956 that Rock's collection process - collecting all plants not just searching for exotics - had important implications and opened possibilities for reforestation in North America's severest northern climates. Rock also introduced blight-resistant chestnuts. He deposited a sizable collection of birds and mammals at the U.S. National Museum the Arnold Arboretum and Harvard's Museum of Comparative Zoology. During his later years botanizing back in Hawaii in the 1950s Rock noted ominously that many native species he had collected earlier in his career had vanished completely . His efforts in linguistics are widely recognized; he spent years collecting and translating 8000 volumes of original Naxi literature including their religious tracts" Hunt Botanical Institute website.

The birth and origin of Dto-mba Shilo: the founder of the Mo-so shamanism according to Mo-so manuscripts translated and annotated by J. F. Rock as contained in Artibus Asiae
Leipzig: Verlag der Offizin Richard Hadl 1937. Rare offprint "separatum" from Artibus Asiae volume VII; 4to pp. 85 1; 16 mounted plates at the back a few illustrations in the text; first 2 leaves a bit toned else a very good sound copy in contemporary black wrappers printed paper label on upper cover. Rock 1884-1962 was "captivated by the ritual books he found in the possession of the Naxi religious specialists the 'dongba' while plant hunting in China's borderlands. Rock went on to devote the remaining years of his life to the translation of these books that contained such a treasure house of knowledge a corpus of literature that for Rock offered tantalising glimpses at the indigenous religion of pre-Buddhist Tibet. Rock a voracious autodidact appreciated an intellectual challenge: this was a script that by the time he first encountered it in the 1920s nobody had previously deciphered aside from some exploratory incomplete translations conducted via Chinese by French scholars and explorers. This vast corpus of ritual literature was essentially unexplored territory and this was where Rock liked to tread. Through his assiduous collecting and cataloguing and not without controversy he preserved thousands of these texts in collections now spread throughout the western world . While Rock's first published translations were no more than concise summaries of the stories he discovered within the Naxi manuscripts he later developed a more extensive anthropological style of translation. This meant recording in exacting detail the phonetic reading given by a dongba and then embarking upon a full written commentary. The first translation to use this method was published in 1937 as 'The birth and origin of Dto-mba Shilo the founder of Mo-so shamanism according to Mo-so manuscripts' a seminal work on Dobbaq-sheel'lo the mythical founding father of the dongba religion" see Poupard D.J.

THE LAND OF THE YELLOW LAMA: National Geographic Society Explorer Visits the Str
Washington 1924 N.G.S. Original yellow stiff wrs.extra- cted article pages 447-492 40 b. w. photos by Rock map very good. An excellent primary resource on Rock's Tibetan exploration among the independent Lama kingdom of Muli in the extreme Southwest of Szechwan. Hitherto almost nothing has been written about this ethnic group known to the Chinese as Hsi Fan or "Western Barbarians." The road to Muli lies through Gorges & over mountains pierced by the mighty Yangtze which has cut a 13000 feet deep trench through the limestone. The trip to Likian to Muli is one of the most trying in South- western China. Rock treked through the Lolo forest lands and Nashi sheepherders Tibetan highlands of Laposhan to the summit of the Yangtze-Youngning at 12550 feet to the Lushi tribe. A fascinating account of the Muli & its Lamasary with 700 Lamas. The full issue contains an additional article: THE NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC SOCIETY'S YUNNAN PROVINCE EXPEDITION by Gilbert Grosvenor with 5 photographs. A marvelous resource. unknown

BIBLIA INFANTIL VIDA
VIDA EDITORA. new. Por que o mundo � como � Qual seria a melhor forma de as pessoas viverem As hist�rias na primeira parte da B�blia tratam dessas grandes perguntas. O mundo � como � porque foi assim que Deus o fez. Ele criou as primeiras pessoas que escolheram no prestar ateno ao aviso de Deus e reclamaram da vida que levavam que era sem preocupaes em um jardim paradis�aco. Ado e Eva foram separados do Deus. Dali em diante o padro estava estabelecido: aqueles que vivessem uma vida justa podiam confiar que Deus cuidaria deles mas aqueles que fossem maus sofreriam as consequncias de seus erros. Mas Deus planejou acabar com a diviso entre a terra e o c�u e usou homens para apresentar humanidade esse plano entre eles estava Mois�s. Se as pessoas obedecessem s leis dadas por Mois�s Deus seria o Deus deles e eles seriam o povo de Deus. VIDA EDITORA unknown
