Himalayan Passages: Tibetan and Newar Studies in Honor of Hubert Decleer

Description

Over decades, hundreds of American undergraduates spending a term abroad have been introduced to Tibetan culture in India, Nepal, and China by Hubert Decleer. A number went on to become prominent scholars in the field at institutions such as Yale, Berkeley, and Georgetown, and as a tribute to him they have put together this collection of cutting-edge research in Himalayan studies, bringing together contributions of this new generation with those of senior researchers in the field.
