This work aims at filling a long-felt need in this field of studies, by publishing the writings of the Italian missionaries in Tibet and Nepal, both Jesuits and Capuchins. A mass of materials (letters, travel accounts, Tibetan and Nepalese documents) are thus made available for the first time in a critical edition of high scientific level. The notes are characterized by constant reference to the relevant Tibetan literature. The selection and annotation of the texts follow mainly historical, geographical and ethnological principles.
