From the cover: Since their discovery a century ago the Dunhuang manuscripts have revolutionized the study of Asian religions. Until recently however the rich materials relating to esoteric tantric Buddhism have been largely ignored. This volume provides an indispensable doorway into these materials. An introduction summarizes the discovery worldwide dissemination and general character of these Tibetan treasures. The catalogue entries provide introductory discussions of the manuscripts' contents in addition to reordering the often scrambled folios linking them to their long-lost counterparts in other collections and matching them with corresponding texts in the Tibetan canon. The catalogue includes indices to Tibetan and Sanskrit titles names and terms as well as all Pelliot manuscripts referenced. The result is an invaluable resource for scholars of Buddhism.

réf. A9781503641983Hardback. New. At the turn of the twentieth century the city of Edirne was a bustling center linking Istanbul to Ottoman Europe. It was also the capital of Edirne Province—among the most religiously diverse regions of the Ottoman Empire. But by 1923 the city had become a Turkish border town and the province had lost much of its non-Muslim population. With this book Jacob Daniels explores how one of the world's largest Sephardi communities dealt with the encroachment of modern borders. Using Ladino French English and Turkish sources Daniels offers a new take on the ways in which ethno-religious minorities experienced the transition "from empire to nation-state." Rather than tracing a linear path Edirne Jews zigzagged between the Ottoman Empire and three nation-states—without moving a mile. And by maintaining interstate Sephardi networks they resisted pressure to treat the shifting border as a limit to their zone of belonging. Ultimately proximity to the border would undo Edirne's Jewish community but the way this ending came about—local Jews were rarely killed or deported—challenges common assumptions about state borders and Jewish history. By studying Jewish encounters with the nation-state alongside the emergence of modern borders Daniels sheds light on both phenomena. hardcover
