Paperback. Condition: New. Language: French. About the Book: - The writer of this discourse explores all the avenues to know the art, sculpture, architecture, culture, literature, music, industry, trade, agriculture and cuisine, and left their indelible mark on the art of Central Asia through the three volumes of the book. This travelogue is a comprehensive guide about Nepal's ancient history and literature. The inscriptions, antiquities and illustrations have been revealing a clear picture of the hilly terrain. The Newars are the indigenous inhabitants and the creators of the historic civilization of the valley. Their language is today known as Nepal Bhasa. They are understood to be the descendants of the various ethnic and racial groups that have inhabited and ruled the valley in the two-millennium history of the place. Newa architecture consists of the pagoda, stupa, shikhara, chaitya and other styles. The valley's trademark is the multiple-roofed pagoda which may have originated in this area and spread to India, China, Indo China and Japan. The book is the product of extensive study of Nepal which provides ample scopes to know its cultural heritage to give the three volumes of the book a uniform touch. The author has preserved the pictures and inscriptions from oblivion. About the Author: - Sylvain Lévi was an influential orientalist and indologist who taught Sanskrit and Indian religion at the École pratique des hautes études. Lévi's book Théâtre Indien is an important work on the subject of Indian performance art, and Lévi also conducted some of the earliest analysis of Tokharian fragments discovered in Western China. Lévi exerted a significant influence on the life and thought of Marcel Mauss, the nephew of Émile Durkheim. Lévi was a co-founder of the École française d'Extrême-Orient in Hanoi.
