Beschreibung
"The Epic of Gesar of Ling has been the national treasure of Tibet for almost a thousand years. An open canon of tales about a superhuman warrior-king, the epic is still a living oral tradition, included in UNESCO's Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.

While the first three volumes cover Gesar's birth, youth, and rise to power, this volume recounts the martial victories and magical feats that made him a legendary figure in Tibet and beyond"--
