The geographic and cultural area under consideration includes East Asia, South East Asia, South Asia and Central Asia, which encompasses the fields of Indology, Tibetology, Sinology, Japanology, Buddhist Studies and Religious Studies. Research at the institute, using philologic historical methods and based on primary sources in the relevant languages, deals above all with intellectual and cultural history, and includes subject matter reaching from questions concerning the history of philosophy and religion, the history of mentalities, religious hermeneutics, studies on concepts and ideas to lexicography. Projects include research on broad cultural questions, the editing and publishing of important primary source materials, and the preparation of specialized dictionaries.

http://www.iiasa.ac.at/Research/LUC/ChinaFood/ more Language: eng English Wiener China Bibliographie = Books on China in libraries in Vienna/AustriaCitation: Over centuries, Viennese libraries acquired - among many other treasures - rich materials on China: Dictionaries, early translations of Chinese classics, travelogues, maps, atlanti. The earliest examples for materials dealing with China date from the late 15th century (first printed edition of a German version of Marco Polo's account). Over four centuries - until the 1850s - Viennese libraries collected books on China (and on Asia in general), in a variety of languages. The existence of these treasures in Vienna is widely unknown to the scientific community. This project intends to list all China-related holdings of printed books (published up to 1939) held in the Österreichische Nationalbibliothek (Austrian National Library), the Universitätsbibliothek Wien (Vienna University Library; including the main library and the holdings of the various department libraries as well), and the Library of the Austrian State Archives. All copies existing in the holdings of these libraries will be included in this bibliography. This special bibliography aims to enhance research on the history of relations between China and Europe. [...] The listing of all China-related printed books in the above-mentioned libraries will provide an inventory of these works distributed over several sites in Vienna. [...] The bibliography will include all printed Western-language material on China displayed in the various library catalogues - including printed maps, offprints (of journal and newspaper articles). [...] As of 1 september 2006, this project currently lists about 3,100 titles. The bibliography is currently amended - new lists will be online August 1, 2007.
