O książce Tibet and the Himalayas: Past and Present I

At the Research Centre for Buddhist Studies created by Marek Mejor at the University of Warsaw he is accompanied in his research on Tibetan Buddhism by Stanisław Jan Kania. Thus, Tibetan studies are represented at the University of Warsaw by a team of scholars interested in diverse aspects of Tibetology. Currently the Tibetan Studies courses are being taught in two programmes: Mongolian and Tibetan Studies and the Religions of Asia and Africa: Buddhism, Islam and Others.
The present work, titled Tibet and the Himalayas: Past and Present I is a result of the collective efforts of the whole Tibetological group in a volume edited by Magdalena Szpindler, Paulina Koniuch and Stanisław Jan Kania. The core of the work was formed during the international conference that was organized on October 21-22, 2024 at the Faculty of Oriental Studies, currently the Faculty of Asian and African Cultures, of the University of Warsaw.
In the present volume we included research results of Tibetologists presenting them from the most general to those most specialized. With the variety of research topics introduced briefly in the volume, the first of the series of studies and publications that we plan at the University of Warsaw, the authors and editors humbly hope that their contributions will bring interest and better understanding of the rich cultures of Tibet and the Himalayas.
