Description

About The Book: Brian Houghton Hodgson, an English civil servant who served in British India and Nepal, possessed expertise in Tibetan Buddhism as well. In 1874, he published Essays on the Languages, Literature, and Religion of Nepal and Tibet (in two parts). Part 1 concentrates on Buddhism, encompassing religious practices, literature, writing, attitudes toward Buddhism, and a comparison between Buddhism and Shaivism. Part 2 delves into other aspects of Nepal and the Himalayas, such as tribal culture, colonization, and commerce. With its extensive coverage of linguistic, cultural, sociological, and economic topics, this collection remains pertinent for scholars engaged in these fields.
