1916SB-13568Tokyo, Kobunsha, 1916. 15, (546) pp. Green clothbound (original) volume with gold-embossed title along spine and blind-tooled publisher's mark on front. Illustrated endpaper with floral ornamentation. Famous study of Russian Orientalist, Sinologist and scholar of Japanese Studies Otto Julius Rosenberg (1888 - 1919) on a system of classification of Chinese characters. Rosenberg studied from 1906 to 1911 at the Institute of Oriental Studies of the University of St. Petersburg, lectured by, among others, the founder of the Russian school of Indology, Sergei Oldenburg (1863 - 1934). During a study stay in Bonn in 1909, Rosenberg befriended Hermann Jacobi (1850-1937), the greatest Indologist and Sanskrit scholar of that time. As part of an internship at the Department of Oriental Languages (SOS) at the Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität two years later, he also befriended the German linguist and scholar of Japanese studies, Rudolf Lange (1850 - 1933). From 1912 to 1916 he studied Buddhist Literature and Tradition at the University of Tokyo. Here Rosenberg became acquainted with the then leading Buddhist Scholars of Japan. In the course of this stay, he explored the school of Zen Buddhism as one of the first Western scientists and also became an expert for Japanese and Chinese characters used in the writing of Chinese and Japanese. In 1924, his work "The problems of Buddhist philosophy" was published in German. Based on ideas of Russian Sinologist and Buddhologist Vasily Vasilyev (1818 - 1900), Rosenberg developed a method of classification of Chinese and Japanese characters. He published the results of his research in a dictionary which was published in English and Japanese and which formed the basis of the so-called "Four Corner Method", which is still employed today in the creation of Chinese and Japanese dictionaries. This volume is extremely rare and, according to the world's largest bibliographic database, WorldCat, it is only found in six libraries worldwide. The copy offered here was purchased from a Japanese private collection.

The Tibetan Book of the Dead or The After-Death Experiences on the Bardo Plane according to Lama Kazi Dawa-Samdup's English Rendering

1927000013000Oxford: Oxford University Press 1927. First English language edition. Hardcover. Near Fine. 8vo. 9 x-xliv 1 2-248 pp. Green cloth with a gold design stamped on the front board the Hindu/Buddhist swastika at the center of the design gold lettering and a gold decoration on the spine; top edge gilt. Title page printed in red and black. Illustrated with a double-sided frontispiece and with several plates of black and white photographs. Foreword by Sir John Woodroffe. World History Encyclopedia Joshua J. Mark "Tibetan Book of the Dead". According to the traditional story Lotus Guru Padmasambhava and a female disciple Yeshe Tsogyal wrote the texts that would become the Bardo Thodol the Tibetan Book of the Dead during the eighth century of the Common Era. The texts became lost to time until they were found and disseminated orally by Karma Lingpa in the fourteenth century. Although written as a guide to assist and comfort the dead the work has taken on a new life as a guide for the living on spiritual transformation and self-improvement. The buddhist text is divided into six sections beginning with the moment of death until the moment that the deceased soul is either reborn or breaks the cycle of reincarnation samsara. The book was intended to shepherd the recently deceased through these cycles of the intermediate stages of reality and was read aloud at funeral rites for either days or weeks at a time by a monk. It was not until the twentieth century that the work was published in English. Walter Evans-Wentz was an anthropologist and scholar of Tibet and sought Dawa-Samdup's help in translating the texts from Tibetan into English. Dawa-Samdup died in 1922 after completing the funerary section of the book and Evans-Wentz filled in the rest accourding to his own knowledge. The Tibetan Book of the Dead is an excellent example of the core tenets of Buddhism and of eastern philosophy in general. A contemporary bookplate on the front pastedown very light foxing to the title page. Overall a beautiful copy. Oxford University Press hardcover
