The book contains five articles based around the products of Prof. Shen's recent research on Tibetan history and Tibetan Buddhism in the Yuan and Qing dynasties. It addresses the foremost international scholarly debate on how to properly interpret the histories of non-Han-Chinese ruling dynasties, and assesses prior scholarship on the topic from the perspective of a Central Asian and Buddhist philologist. Via philological inquiry into a variety of multilingual documents, including Tibetan, Mongolian, Tangut, and Manchu texts, the author re-examines the religious and political relations between Tibet and the Chinese central government during the Yuan, Ming, and Qing dynasties within the framework of a broader contemporary scholarship between the East and West.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShen Weirong\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor of Tibetan Studies at Tsinghua Institute of Advanced Study for Humanities and Social Sciences and School of Humanities, Tsinghua University.
