The papers address a spectrum of issues in Tibetan religion and literature, ranging in time and space from the far eastern oasis of Dunhuang in the tenth century through 'high classical' developments in Central Tibet in the early fifteenth century. It is divided into four parts, addressing respectively literary and religious issues in tenth-century Dunhuang, the textual history of the Old Tantric Canon (Rnying ma'i rgyud 'bum), the development of Tibetan religious literature in the new translation period, and the history and transmission of several influential systems of esoteric Buddhism.Brill's Tibetan studies library ;v. 10/4.Proceedings of the tenth seminar of the IATS, 2003BuddhismChinaTibet Autonomous RegionHistoryCongressesBuddhismHistory294.3/923Davidson Ronald M.1950-1757881Wedemeyer Christian K712930MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910824991003321Tibetan Buddhist literature and praxis4195880UNINA
