| 摘要 | Do you want to learn to read Classical Tibetan? If you know how to read the Tibetan u-chen script and can recognize words, How to Read Classical Tibetan will show you--at your own pace--all the relationships that make Tibetan easy to read. It is a complete language course built around the exposition of a famous fifteenth century Tibetan text summarizing stages of the path to Buddhahood. All the language tools you need to work at your own pace are in one place. You won't need a dictionary because all of the words and particles are translated and explained upon every occurrence, and there is a complete glossary at the end of the book; every sentence is diagramed and completely explained so that you can easily see how the words and particles are arranged to convey meaning. Because everything is always explained in every sentence, you will easily learn to recognize the recurrent patterns, making the transition from learning words to reading sentences much easier for you. As you study How to Read Classical Tibetan, you will learn to：recognize the syntactic relationships you encounter, understand the meaning signified, and translate that meaning correctly into English. C. Preston has been studying Tibetan Buddhism for 25 years, beginning at the University of Virginia where he worked with American scholars and with many wonderful lamas. After moving to Ithaca, New York, he taught Classical Tibetan at Namgyal Institute for two years. He continues to teach Tibetan and Buddhist philosophy privately in Ithaca at the Nagarjuna Language Institute (www.giganticom.com) which he founded. |
