| bio | Dr. Ujeed's primary research interests focus on the transnational, transregional, and cross-cultural aspects of Tibetan Buddhism during the Early modern period with particular emphasis on lineage, reincarnation, identity formation, knowledge transmission, and travel. Her principal research goal is to explore and elucidate the hybridity of religion and identity in the wider Tibetan Buddhist world, that was in essence, highly cosmopolitan, multicultural, multiethnic, and multilingual. She is primarily a textual scholar who is methodologically invested in the ongoing discourses in Decolonialism, Transnationalism, Translation theory, Narratology, Oral Literature, and Literary theory. Her research materials cover a wide range of textual genres of Tibetan Buddhist literature and Qing period archival materials composed in Tibetan, Mongolian, Manchu, and Chinese.
Some of her leading research questions include: What does the multilateral transmission of practices and teachings reveal about the relationship between different Tibetan Buddhist traditions? How were the partial societies of monastic scholasticism formed and represented, spread as they were across and grouping together vast topographies of religious institutions, language, political administration, ethnicity, and practice? How do people form transcultural identities, and how do those identities change across time and space? What is the role of language in the translation, transmission and preservation of a tradition? How should we approach the study of archives and textual collections? (Adapted from Source May 6, 2026) |
