An Anthology of Ge Saer Published


An Anthology of Ge Saer Published
Ge Saer Anthology, a state key publishing project in the Ninth Five-year Plan Period, has come off the press recently. This marks a new step forward in the collection, compilation and study of the "Ge Saer", the heroic epic of the Tibetan people.

Composed by the Tibetan people in ancient times, the great heroic epic Ge Sa'er was later prevailing among the Mongolian, Tu, Yugu, Sala, Pumi, Naxi and other nationalities. Its combination with different hues of culture of the ethnic people has helped the original epic to develop into various versions of it.

The complete Ge Saer Anthology consists of five volumes with a total of 37.2 million words, illustrating a panoramic picture of the historic period.
