This wide-ranging book brings new and fresh visions of important aspects of Tibetan culture. It considers fields as diverse as power in Lhatok in Eastern Tibet, the dynamics and politics of lattice window design in Rebgong (Amdo), humour in old Tibetan verse, and concepts of the self in modern testimonia. The authors approach their topics with verve and insight, employing novel and often ground-breaking ways of dealing with their respective fields.
David Templeman has worked for many years on the writings of the 16-17th century Tibetan lama, Taranatha. He is working on a translation of that lama's massive autobiography and has recently co-authored (with John Powers) A Historical Dictionary of Tibet. He is an Adjunct Research fellow at Monash Asia Institute, Monash University.
