I'm sure most of us have much better things to do than read blogs.
But there is one that is of perhaps special interest, since it is
that of the masterful Tibetologist Dan Martin. If, like me, you find
pretty much everything he writes illuminating, read on:
This morning he posted what is essentially an article/work in
progress on Armenians in Tibet, early contacts between Tibet and
Europe, trade and missionary contact, the Fifth Dalai Lama and
Christianity, and other points of fascination. I'd like to share the
URL, and to pass along Dan's wish that any interested readers are
invited to contribute their insights and information. Although he
doesn't explicitly say so, maybe this will help contribute to the
type of collaborative scholarship which our field(s) haven't yet
really taken advantage of.
