Features: The several articles selected in this collection systematically and straightforwardly record the author's process and footsteps in investigating and studying the social, historical, religious, and cultural aspects of the Gannan Tibetan region. This collection also includes Li Anzai Professor's research report from his field investigation in Western Sichuan from autumn 1944 to 1945, as well as several papers he wrote in the 1940s on Tibetan Buddhism, and excerpts from his partial translation of the book "Tibetans on Tibet." From these articles, we can see that during this period, Li Anzai Professor had expanded the scope of his research from Gannan to Western Sichuan and Tibet; his research on Tibetan Buddhism had also deepened compared to the 1930s. The articles selected in this collection fully reflect Li Anzai's steady and victorious academic thought and research style. In the process of organization and selection, while necessary corrections were made for certain dates, people, and events, the rest remained as originally presented to better reflect the historical context of the time.
