A Lower Ladakhi Version Of The Kesar Saga

Paperback. Zustand: New. Language: English. About the Book:-The author has been trying to portray the existence of Kesar Saga and its culture and literature through this discourse. As far as we can see at present, the first European, who makes any mention of the existence of the Kesar Saga among Mongolian people, is a German, Peter Simon Pallas, born at Berlin in 1741. He heard of it during his travels in Russian service among the Kalmuks of the Russian Steppes. As long as only the Mongolian version of the Kesar Saga was known, it had to remain undecided whether the saga is of Mongolian or Tibetan origin. Through these publications, the question was now opened-up, how the hitherto unknown literary versions of the Kesar Saga and the recently published popular versions were to be reconciled with each other. The book is the product of extensive study of this topic. About the Author:-August Hermann Francke was a German Lutheran clergyman, theologian, philanthropist, and Biblical scholar. Born in Lübeck, Francke was educated at the Illustrious Gymnasium in Gotha before he studied at the universities of Erfurt and Kiel where he came under the influence of the pietist Christian Kortholt and finally Leipzig. During his student career he made a special study of Hebrew and Greek; and in order to learn Hebrew more thoroughly, he for some time put himself under the instructions of Ezra Edzardi at Hamburg. He graduated at Leipzig, where in 1685 he became a Privatdozent. After a long visit to Spener, at that time a court preacher in Dresden, Francke returned to Leipzig in the spring of 1689, and began to give Bible lectures of an exegetical and practical kind, at the same time resuming the Collegium Philobiblicum of earlier days. He soon became popular as a lecturer; but the peculiarities of his teaching almost immediately aroused a violent opposition on the part of the university authorities; and before the end of the year he was interdicted from lecturing on the ground of his alleged pietism The Title 'A Lower Ladakhi Version Of The Kesar Saga written/authored/edited by A.
