Tibetan Religion and the Senses
Description:

This special issue of Revue d’Etudes Tibétaines is the first concerted attempt to study Tibetan religion from the perspective of sensory studies. It considers the roles of the senses in Tibetan religion from a diversity of vantage points, exploring how the senses figure in both the Bon and Buddhist traditions through focused studies that range across philosophical, liturgical, and narrative literary genres, and ethnographic fieldwork settings.
