À propos de ce contenu audio

This episode dives into the tumultuous reign of the 13th Dalai Lama, Thubten Gyatso, who ruled Tibet from 1876 to 1933. We explore his childhood under a regency, his flight to Mongolia and China during the Younghusband invasion of 1904, and his later efforts to modernize Tibet and assert its sovereignty against British, Chinese, and Mongol threats. Key figures include the Qing ambans, the British officers Younghusband and Charles Bell, and the Mongolian prince Paljor Dorje. We cover the Treaty of Lhasa, the Simla Convention, the Tibet-Mongolia Treaty of 1913, and Thubten Gyatso's eventual return to Lhasa and consolidation of secular power. The episode sheds light on how the Gelug monastic order and the Dalai Lama's office navigated the collapse of the Qing dynasty and the rise of Republican China, setting the stage for Tibet's modern political identity.
