Abstract: | "The Mission of the Newars" offers a refreshed view of the relationship between Nepalbhasa and Buddhism, an update of the vitality of both language and religion among the Buddhist Newars based on scientific fieldwork, and an original perspective on possible future development of the language and religion synchronicity which is , as the author writes, part of "the genius of the Newars" If read between the lines, this essay by a French scholar is also, in the own word,"a love letter addressed to the Newar culture" |
