Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into an ancient mystery concerning two interrelated countries in the East â" Ta-tsin and Fu-lin. While previous theories have predominantly identified Ta-tsin as Syria, the author presents compelling evidence to suggest that it actually refers to the Roman Empire. Further, the author proposes that Fu-lin, a land shrouded in even greater enigma, corresponds to the Eastern Roman Empire or Byzantium. The author meticulously examines historical records, particularly those from Chinese sources, to support these claims. Not only does this book shed light on the identities of these enigmatic lands, but it also delves into the religious and political dynamics of their relationship with China. One of this book's many strengths is its thorough research and analysis of primary sources. The author's deep understanding of Chinese history allows them to trace the evolution of these two terms, Ta-tsin and Fu-lin, through various historical periods. Through this analysis, they posit that the terms referred to distinct geographical entities, rather than simply being interchangeable names for a single location. Moreover, this book situates these findings within the broader context of East-West relations and the Silk Road, emphasizing the significance of these connections in shaping the political and cultural landscapes of Eurasia. By providing a nuanced understanding of the complexities of these relationships, this book offers valuable insights for scholars and general readers interested in the history of East-West exchange.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the dates of the composition of the ancient Indian philosophical Stras, texts that present the core principles of six orthodox philosophical systems. The author examines Buddhist doctrines which the Stras reference and refute, especially the nihilistic Snyavada and the idealistic Vijanavada, which emphasized the reality of consciousness over external objects. Through this analysis, the author argues that the Stras predate the development of Vijanavada, and therefore must have been composed earlier than previously thought. The book contributes to our understanding of the development of Indian philosophy and the intellectual climate of the period in which the Stras were written.
