Power, politics, and religion -- 2. The reinvention of tradition.This volume focuses upon the relationships between the past and the present evoked in Tibetan historiography, ritual literature, and Buddhist esoteric writings. It offers diverse perspectives on a critical period in Tibet's history when Tibetans found themselves caught up in the tides of political turmoil and forced into the center of a much larger Central Eurasian struggle for power and territorial control between the Manchu rulers of the Qing empire and the Mongols of the north by focusing on the various ways Tibetan historians, biographers, and scholars of all sorts during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries succeeded in this task of reinventing and reinforcing their respective traditions.Brill's Tibetan studies library ;v. 10/3.Tibet in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuriesPIATS 2003 : Tibetan studies : proceedings of the Tenth Seminar of the International Association for Tibetan Studies, Oxford, 2003Tibet Autonomous Region (China)HistoryCongresses951/.5032Cuevas Bryan J.1967-783511Schaeffer Kurtis R783512MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910966155103321Power, politics, and the reinvention of tradition4480558UNINA
