剑桥大学出版社经典版本 旅居尼泊尔的历史专家写作 探索喜马拉雅心脏的历史脉动
Beginning with a foundational introduction to the environment, politics, and society of the mid-Himalayan region before 1743, this book narrates the history of Nepal. Its themes include the unification and Sanskritization of the region, the consolidation of absolute monarchy, the pursuit of development, Nepal's social transformations, and the progression of democracy. The book holds significant appeal for students of South Asian history, as it fills a gap in the research of this field. The author, Phelpton, has earned widespread acclaim for his comprehensive and methodical study of Nepal's political history. Having worked in Nepal, his research on the country's history is both deep and thorough. The volume is enriched with numerous illustrations and tables and includes a glossary explaining the names of various organizations and institutions. The content is current, and the information is comprehensive.
