19世纪中后期,大批西方传教士涌入中国西南地区传教,他们首先发现了纳西族用象形文字书写的东巴经,并将复本寄回欧洲,在此后将近一个世纪的时间里,西方传教士、探险家、学者还有政府部门纷纷高价收购,掀起了一轮东巴经收购的高潮。保守估计,目前藏于海外的东巴经的数量近万册。本文结合相关英文、法文文献对19世纪末以来东巴经在西方社会的传播史做系统的梳理和研究。 In the mid-19th century, a large number of Western missionaries poured into the missionary work in southwestern China. They first discovered the Naxi people’s written Tungkaba script in hieroglyphics and sent copies back to Europe. After nearly a century, Western missionaries Explorers, explorers, academics and government departments all purchased at high prices, setting off the climax of a Dongba deal. It is conservatively estimated that the number of Dongba Sects currently hidden overseas amounts to nearly 10,000. This article combines relevant English, French literature on the spread of the history of Dongba in Western countries since the late 19th century to systematically comb and study.
