About the Book

This book was constructed to fulfill a quite special need existing within the Buddhist Studies Program at the University of Wisconsin. Its aim is the adequate linguistic preparation of students of Tibetan religion and culture who are preparing to do fieldwork for a PhD, and thereafter, among the learned lamas and geshes living in the Tibetan communities in India, Nepal, etc. As such it seeks to provide an intermediate Tibetan textbook of the type which has long been available for the teaching and study of the more familiar languages, French, German, Italian, and the like, the kind of book in which the students is exposed as much to the culture of the respective country as to a more advanced practice of the language. At the University of Wisconsin this book is used for the second year course in spoken Tibetan. It presupposes a familiarity with the Manual of Modern Spoken Tibetan: Lhasa Dialect by Goldstein and Nornang, at the first year level. At Wisconsin, the second year course meets five times a week for three classroom and two laboratory sessions, respectively. In the labortory, the student listens to and practises the language material by means of tapes, while in the classroom he works with a teacher on the exercises to be found at the end of each lesson. The book is divided into two parts. In the first, the lecture material is varied, whereas the second part represents the continued exposition of a single topic. The latter in particular is representative of the kind of work a student will be doing with Tibetan scholars in India and elsewhere, where long exposition is devoted to a single given text or subjects.
