Pr�sentation de l'�diteur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of ancient Burmese geography, drawing upon a fascinating blend of historical accounts, legends, and religious texts to reconstruct the country's past. The author examines the intricate interplay of Buddhist scriptures, local folklore, and historical records, revealing how these seemingly disparate sources contribute to our understanding of Burma's historical landscape. The book meticulously analyzes the legend of Punna, a pivotal figure in Buddhist narratives, as it unfolded in Burmese tradition. By tracing the evolution of the legend, the author demonstrates how seemingly mythical figures and locations were incorporated into the Burmese historical consciousness, blurring the lines between reality and myth. The book reveals how place names and historical narratives were woven together, often leading to the creation of an artificial geography that served both national pride and religious purposes. The authorâ� �s exploration into the origins and evolution of this "apocryphal geography" sheds light on the enduring influence of religious beliefs on historical narratives. Ultimately, the book provides a unique perspective on the complex tapestry of Burmese history, demonstrating the crucial role of religious narratives in shaping cultural memory and understanding of the past. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N� de r�f. du vendeur 9781330199688_0
