IDP News Issue No. 38 now online


IDP News Issue No. 38, Winter 2011–12 is now available online.

 This issue is dedicated to the Diamond Sutra including an article on its history and transmission, a preliminary study of the paper of the printed copy found at Dunhuang, as well as extracts from new books on the Diamond Sutra, one of which showcases the conservation work recently completed at the British Library. We also report on the IDP partners’ business meeting held in October 2011 at the Dunhuang Academy, and the exhibition curated by the Dunhuang Academy on historical photographs of Dunhuang. The image above shows a detail from the frontispiece of the Diamond Sutra
