Guiseppe Tucci (1894-1984) was an Italian Orientalist, Indologist and scholar of East Asian studies, specializing in Tibetan culture and history of Buddhism. Fluent in several European languages, Sanskrit, Bengali, Pali, Prakrit, Chinese and Tibetan, he is considered one of the founders of the field of Buddhist Studies. He was also a supporter of Italian Fascism, and he used idealized portrayals of Asian traditions to support Italian ideological campaigns. He made seven expeditions to Tibet between 1933 and 1947. | |||||||||||||
