Book
Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Jesuit on the Roof of the World is the first full-length study in any language of Ippolito Desideri (1684-1733), a Jesuit explorer and missionary who traveled in Tibet from 1715 to 1721. Based on close readings of a wide range of primary sources in Tibetan, Italian, and Latin, Jesuit on the Roof of the World follows Desideri's journey across the great Western deserts of Tibet, his entry into the court of the Mongol chieftainLhazang Khan, and his flight across Eastern Tibet during the wars that shook Tibet during the early-eighteenth century. While telling of these harrowing events, Desideri relates the dramatic encounter between his Jesuitphilosophy and the scholasticism of the Geluk monks; the personal conflict between his own Roman Catholic beliefs and his appreciation of Tibet religion and culture; and the travails of a variety of colorful characters whose political intrigues led to the invasion of Zuenghar Mongols of 1717 and the establishment of the Chinese protectorate in 1720. As the Tibetans fought among themselves, the missionary waged his own war against demons, sorcerers, and rival scholasticphilosophers. Towering over all in the mind of the missionary was the "fabulous idol" Avalokitesvara and its embodiment in the Sixth Dalai Lama Tsangyang Gyatso. In describing his spiritual warfare againstthe Tibetan "pope," the missionary offers a unique glimpse into theological problem of the salvation of non-Christians in early modern theology; the curious-and highly controversial-appeal of Hermetic philosophy in the Asian missions; the political underbelly of the Chinese Rites Controversy; and the persistent European fascination with the land of snows. Jesuit priests often served as the avant-garde as European powers expanded in the early modern era. Jesuit on the Roof of the World is the first full-length study of Ippolito Desideri, a Jesuit explorer and missionary who traveled in Tibet from 1715 to 1721. Based on close readings of a wide range of primary sources in Tibetan, Italian, and Latin, Trent Pomplun's work follows the Jesuit's journey across Tibet's western deserts, his entry into the court of the Mongol chieftain Lhazang Khan, and his flight during the war that shook the Himalayan kingdom during his stay. Desideri's letters and later account of his travels relate the encounter between his Thomist philosophy and the scholasticism of Geluk monks; the personal conflict between his Roman Catholic beliefs and his appreciation of Tibetan religion and culture; and the political intrigues that led to the establishment of the Chinese protectorate in 1720. Desideri's writings also offer a unique glimpse of Europe's fascination with the land of snows. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
