During decades of forced sociopolitical and economic upheaval in Tsang Province of China's Tibetan Autonomous Region--with medical texts destroyed or hidden, teachers and lamas imprisoned or otherwise silenced, and almost all trade in medicinal ingredients halted--they had little hope that their 'science of healing' (Sowa Rigpa) would again flourish. Today, however, Tibetan medicine is in vogue, promoted by the Chinese Communist Party as a pillar industry of Tibet and a valuable asset of Tibetans' 'nationality minority culture.' For urban Tibetans, traditional medicine is one of the few areas where a relatively liberal expression of Tibetan identity and language is possible. In urban, medically pluralistic settings it is an easily available resource, while in remote areas, its practice and transmission to the younger generation faces many challenges. The passing away of the last practitioner of a certain pulse-reading or compounding of an herbal formula, for example, could mean the end of a long chain of transmission. For reasons of lack of access, continued repression of nonofficial histories, fear, and loss of living memory, Tibetan medical doctors--the so-called amchi--have been little studied. This volume presents their story, showing how practitioners from Tsang have retained crucial links in the teaching of medical knowledge despite the near-annihilation of monastic Buddhism and 'medical houses."Studies on ethnic groups in China.MemoireAspect socialChineTibet (Chine)21e siecleramMemoireAspect socialChineTibet (Chine)20e siecleramAnthropologie medicaleChineTibet (Chine)Histoire21e siecleramAnthropologie medicaleChineTibet (Chine)Histoire20e siecleramEthnomedecineChineTibet (Chine)Histoire21e siecleramEthnomedecineChineTibet (Chine)Histoire20e siecleramMedecins tibetainsHistoire21e siecleramMedecins tibetainsHistoire20e siecleramMedecine tibetaineHistoire21e siecleramMedecine tibetaineHistoire20e siecleramSocial networksfast(OCoLC)fst01122678Social historyfast(OCoLC)fst01919811Social changefast(OCoLC)fst01122310Physiciansfast(OCoLC)fst01062841MemorySocial aspectsfast(OCoLC)fst01015940Medicine, Tibetanfast(OCoLC)fst01015383Ethnicityfast(OCoLC)fst00916034Changement socialChineRégion autonome du TibetHistoireEthnicitéChineRégion autonome du TibetHistoireRéseaux sociauxChineRégion autonome du TibetHistoireMémoireAspect socialChineRégion autonome du TibetHistoireMédecinsChineRégion autonome du TibetHistoireMédecine tibétaineHistoire21e siècleMédecine tibétaineHistoire20e siècleSocial changeChinaTibet Autonomous RegionHistoryEthnicityChinaTibet Autonomous RegionHistorySocial networksChinaTibet Autonomous RegionHistoryMemorySocial aspectsChinaTibet Autonomous RegionHistoryPhysiciansChinaTibet Autonomous RegionHistoryMedicine, TibetanHistory21st centuryMedicine, TibetanHistory20th centuryChinaTibet Autonomous RegionfastChinaRelationsChineRégion autonome du TibetRégion autonome du Tibet (Chine)RelationsChineRégion autonome du Tibet (Chine)Conditions socialesTibet Autonomous Region (China)Social conditionsHistory.Electronic books.
