Jesuit on the roof of the world : Ippolito Desideri's mission to eighteenth-century Tibet /

Jesuit priest Ippolito Desideri traveled in Tibet from 1715-1721. Describing his spiritual warfare against the Tibetan 'pope', the missionary offers a unique glimpse into the theological problem of the salvation of non-Christians in early modern theology. Pomplun follows his journey.
