The open access series BuddhistRoad Paper will be continued
After a successful finish of the BuddhistRoad project, funded by the European Research Council (ERC) and based at the Center for Religious Studies (CERES) at the Ruhr-University Bochum, in January of 2024, we are pleased to announce that the BuddhistRoad Paper series, which has been running since 2019, will continue beyond the official end of the research project.
As of today, the BuddhistRoad Paper series comprises 38 academic articles on topics related to Buddhism and Central Asian studies, including Tibetology, Sinology, Turkology, Indology, as well as Tangut and Khotan studies. The articles are all available open access at https://omp.ub.rub.de/index.php/BuddhistRoad/catalog
Ca. 10 further papers are currently in various stages of the editing process. Researchers who would like to contribute to the series are most welcome to contact the series editor Prof. Dr. Carmen Meinert. Contact: Carmen Meinert (carmen.meinert@rub.de)
