来たる3月5日、6日、下記の通り前近代カシミールをめぐる国際ワークショップが開催されます。

カシミールは今でこそ印パ間の紛争地となってしまいましたが、古くは1世紀に仏教会議の開催地となり、やがて『ニーラマタ・プラーナ』（6～8世紀）や『ラージャタランギニー』（12世紀）のような史書を生み、また独自のカシミール・シャイヴィズム（シヴァ派哲学）やスーフィズム思想を花咲かせた、南アジア・中央アジア・西アジア・東アジアを結ぶ文化・交通の一大結節点という性格を持っています。

本ワークショップでは、そんな前近代カシミールをめぐって、世界の第一線研究者たちが集結し議論を繰り広げる予定です。プログラムは以下のとおりです（英語）。

みなさま奮ってご参加ください。
