Synopsis:
As Tibet enters into its 50th year of Chinese rule, questions of cultural distinctions and similarities are formed to determine the future of the relationship between the two countries.
Setting political agenda aside, Kapstein has assembled a collection of essays to probe the nature of this relationship, from the Tang dynasty (618-907 CE) to the present. The historical accounts that comprise this volume display the dialogue between Tibet and China surrounding scholarship, the fine arts, politics, philosophy, and religion, providing insight into the history behind the relationship from a variety of geographical regions.
