Synopsis:
Written for beginners, but with material of interest to advanced students as well, this book presents a practical guide to the grammar, syntax and conceptual vocabulary of Tibetan Buddhist texts, based on the system developed by Jeffrey Hopkins.
It begins with rules for reading, writing and pronouncing Tibetan, gradually carrying the reader through the patterns seen in Tibetan literary language. It is unique in having an approach which focuses on the vocabulary seen in Buddhist texts, especially those dealing with philosophy and meditation. It expands the student's understanding of vocabulary to encompass the definitions and categories of important terms essential for reading a wide variety of religious and philosophical works. |
