| Summary: | The article is the first monographic excursus about the life and the writings of a major figure of French and European Orientalism in 19th century. As a disciple of Eugène Burnouf (1801-1852), Ph.-E. Foucaux (15 september 1811 - 6 june 1902) is the first European and French scholar to became the successor of the first Tibetanist, Alexander Csoma Körös (1784?-1842), and even the first one to teach Tibetan language, religion and civilization in an European university, assuring thus a most necessary continuity within the discoveries and projects of his master. The author combines, with the aim to annihilate the inaccurate oblivion in which his work and life is maintained since his latest years, the original books, translations, grammar, and articles with some unpublished writings in order to obtain a very fruitful exegesis of his career and influence in the academic and cultural milieu of the epoch. The article ended by a complete bibliography of Foucaux papers. |
