Today, Evans-Wentz is best known for four texts translated from the Tibetan, ''Tibet's Great Yogi Milarepa'' (1928), ''Tibetan Yoga and Secret Doctrines'' (1935), ''The Tibetan Book of the Great Liberation'' (1967). ==Early life and background== He was born as Walter Yeeling Wentz in Trenton, New Jersey in 1878. His father was a real estate businessman, of German descent, while his mother was Irish. He had two brothers and two sisters. Though initially a Baptist, his father had turned to spiritualism and Theosophy.〔 As a teenager he read Madame Blavatsky's ''Isis Unveiled'' and ''The Secret Doctrine'' at his father's library and became interested in the teachings of Theosophy and the occult.〔Lopez, p. 49〕 Subsequently, at the turn of century, he moved to San Diego, California to join his father's profession, but also because it was close to Lomaland, the American headquarters for the Theosophical Society,〔 which he joined in 1901.〔 At age 24 Evans-Wentz went to Stanford University, where he studied religion, philosophy, and history and was deeply influenced by visitors William James and W. B. Yeats.〔 He went on to receive B.A. and M.A degrees.〔 He then studied Celtic mythology and folklore at Jesus College, Oxford〔Sutin 2006, pg. 262〕 (1907). He performed ethnographic fieldwork collecting fairy folklore in Wales, Scotland, Ireland, Cornwall, Brittany, and the Isle of Man. In 1911 Evans-Wentz published his degree thesis as a book, ''The Fairy-Faith in Celtic Countries''.〔〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=University of Virginia )〕 While at Oxford, he added his mother's Welsh surname Evans to his name, being known henceforth as Evans-Wentz.〔Lopez, p. 52〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Walter Evans-Wentz」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
