Renowned as the "Three Polymaths," TseÌten Zhabdrung (1910-1985), MugeÌ Samten (1914-1993), and Dungkar Lozang TrinleÌ (1927-1997) earned this symbolic title for their efforts to keep the lamp of the Dharma lit even in the darkest hour of Tibetan history. Lineages of the Literary reveals how the Three Polymaths negotiated the political tides of the twentieth century, shedding new light on Sino-Tibetan relations and Buddhism during this turbulent era. Nicole Willock explores their contributions to reviving Tibetan Buddhism, expanding Tibetan literary arts, and pioneering Tibetan studies as an academic discipline. Her sophisticated reading of Tibetan-language sources vivifies the capacious literary world of the Three Polymaths, including autobiography, Buddhist philosophy, poetic theory, and historiography. Whereas prevailing state-centric accounts offer Tibetan religious figures in China only two roles, collaborator or resistance fighter, Willock shows how the Three Polymaths offer an alternative model of agency. She illuminates how they by turns safeguarded, taught, and celebrated Tibetan Buddhist knowledge, practices, and institutions after their near destruction during the Cultural Revolution. An interdisciplinary work spanning religious studies, history, literary studies, and social theory, Lineages of the Literary offers new insight into the categories of religion and the secular, the role of Tibetan Buddhist leaders in modern China, and the contested ground of Tibet"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Three Polymaths : past and present -- "Telling what happened" : Buddhist recollections of the 1950s -- Mellifluous words on the human condition : the Maoist years -- Dungkar RinpocheÌ on the contested ground of Tibetan history -- Diverging lineages. 600 00 $a Tshe-tan Zhabs-drung, $d 1910 or 1911-1986. 600 00 $a Bsam-gtan, $c Dmu-dge. 600 00 $a Blo-bzang-ʼphrin-las, $c Dung-dkar, $d 1927-1997. 600 07 $a Bsam-gtan, $c Dmu-dge $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01990544 651 0 $a Tibet Region $x Civilization. 651 0 $a China $x Intellectual life $y 1949- 650 0 $a Buddhism $z Tibet Autonomous Region $z Tibet Autonomous Region $x History $y 20th century. 651 6 $a Tibet historique $x Civilisation. 651 6 $a Chine $x Vie intellectuelle $y 1949- 650 7 $a Buddhism $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00840028 650 7 $a Civilization $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00862898 650 7 $a Intellectual life $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00975769 651 7 $a China $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206073 651 7 $a China $z Tibet Autonomous Region $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01758817 651 7 $a Tibet Region. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919566 648 7 $a Since 1900 $2 fast 655 7 $a History $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Willock, Nicole D. $t Lineages of the literary $d New York : Columbia University Press, [2021] $z 9780231551960 $w (DLC) 2020038975 941 $a 1 952 $l PLAX964 $d 20230718100217.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E5C17DD2214711EEBC7340321FECA4DB 994 $a 92 $b IOHInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
