DESCRIPTION:BuddhistRoad Guest Lecture by Maho Iuchi (Kyoto)\n\nThe lectur
 e will be available live at Zoom. Please pre-register until 11 April 2023\
 , 12 pm. Zoom lecture times: 1 pm (CET)\n\nSo far\, the history of Tibet i
 n the early post-imperial period has been understood based on limited refe
 rences in later historical sources\, as there was an overwhelming lack of 
 contemporaneous sources\, especially in comparison to other periods. In th
 is context\, the Tibetan texts excavated from Karakhoto have great value a
 s a body of sources contemporary with post-imperial Tibet. That is\, they 
 provide much-needed insights into a historical void.\n\nIn this talk\, Mah
 o Iuchi will discuss some of the Tibetan Texts from Karakhoto in the Stein
  Collection of the British Library that show the influence of post-imperia
 l Tibet and their relation to the Tangut Empire (ca. 1038–1227\, in Chin
 ese sources known as Xixia 西夏).\n\n\nMaho Iuchi is a Tibetologist. She
  is Associate Professor of the Hakubi Center for Advanced Research and Gra
 duate School of Letters at Kyoto University and specializes in Tibetan his
 tory of post-imperial period. Her recent publications include: Iuchi\, Mah
