Summary: | At the End of an Era: The Forgotten Story of 'Jam dbyangs Mkhyen brtse Chos kyi dbang phyug / Giacomella Orofino -- "Neither Rnying ma nor Dge lugs": The Ris med Thought of Zhabs dkar tshogs drug rang grol (1781-1851) / Rachel H. Pang -- Ris med and Tibetan Alternative Modernity: Evidence from Karma Bkra shis chos 'phel's Catalogue (dkar chag) to the Dpal spungs Printing of the 7th Karma pa's Collection of Indian Mahāmudrā Works (Phyag rgya chen po'i rgya gzhung) / Adam C. Krug. "The volume brings together nine contributions presenting cutting-edge research on Ris med. The relatively high degree of political autonomy in the A mdo and Khams regions paved the way for the Rnying ma, Sa skya, Bka' brgyud, Jo nang, and Bon traditions to closely collaborate with each other in a spirit of mutual respect and non-partiality (ris med), while enjoying protection and support from local rulers. The contributors examine degrees of tolerance ranging from hierarchical inclusivism to genuine pluralism, inter-tradition relations and collaborations, religio-political entanglements, and the positions, writings and actions of the key figures of Ris med. Thus, they bring to light that Ris med cannot be reduced to its historical, political, religious or sociological facet, but is always a conglomerate of all of them. Groundbreaking research by leading international Tibetan studies scholars Filippo Brambilla, Gabriele Coura, Douglas Duckworth, Adam C. Krug, Klaus-Dieter Mathes, Giacomella Orofino, Rachel H. Pang, Adam S. Pearcey, and Frédéric Richard"-- |
