Occult Tibet: Euro-American Perspectives de Lukas K. Pokorny

Occult Tibet: Euro-American Perspectives: Routledge Studies in Religion

Editat de Lukas K. Pokorny, Franz Winter
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 11 mar 2027
Occult Tibet explores the reception and appropriation of Tibet and related notions within the Euro-American esoteric current since the nineteenth century. It offers the first comprehensive study to examine the specific role of esoteric movements when it comes to Western images of Tibet and the reception of Tibetan religion. The chapters cover a range of topics including Tibet as a perceived source of esoteric wisdom, the role of fiction and imaginative literature, and the intersections between esotericism and academic Tibetology. Touching on key movements and figures, the book opens up new avenues for future scholarship. It is relevant to scholars of religious studies, esotericism, Tibetan studies, and anyone interested in the reception history of Asia in the Euro-American horizon.

Recenzii

Pokorny and Winter have done it again. Occult Tibet is the latest addition to a pathbreaking sequence of anthologies on occultist engagements with East Asia and its religious traditions. This instalment explores the topography and ethnography of a very special place – the imaginary Tibet of Western occultism – and traces the history of its becoming. It is essential reading for scholars of occultism, and highly recommended for everyone who ever wondered how and why Tibet acquired its uniquely mystified position in the geographical imaginary.
- Egil Asprem, Professor of the History of Religions, Stockholm University, Sweden
 With this anthology, Pokorny and Winter once again fill a crucial gap in scholarship, continuing the important work of their previous collections on Asia. Tibet has long occupied a prominent place in the esoteric imagination, making it all the more surprising that its manifold constructions as a source of hidden wisdom, spiritual authority, and occult knowledge have received no comprehensive treatment. Bringing together an impressive range of historical case studies, this pioneering volume will undoubtedly become an important point of reference for the study of esotericism and the modern reception of Tibet.
- Julian Strube, Professor of Religious Studies, University of Göttingen, Germany
This volume makes a significant contribution to the rapidly growing scholarship on how esoteric authors from Western countries perceived non-Western cultures
- Wouter J. Hanegraaff, University of Amsterdam
