Autorenporträt
Sir Marc Aurel Stein, born on November 26, 1862, in Budapest, then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, is a name that stands prominent in the annals of Central Asian and Indological exploration and archaeology. Educated in the universities of Vienna, Leipzig, and Tübingen, Stein specialized in Oriental studies, a passion that would define his future career. Although of Hungarian Jewish descent, Stein became a British citizen in 1904 and conducted most of his exploratory work under the auspices of the British Empire. His magnum opus, 'The Thousand Buddhas,' recounts his archaeological and explorative works in Chinese Central Asia, which includes the now world-famous Caves of the Thousand Buddhas near Dunhuang. This work is a meticulous documentation of the frescoes, sculptures, and manuscripts he discovered, and stands as a testament to the cultural richness of the Silk Road. Stein's literary style combines rigorous scholarly analysis with vivid narrative, capturing the imagination of both academia and the general public. His contributions to preservation of ancient texts and understanding of Silk Road cultures have been unparalleled. Beyond his scholarly pursuits, Stein's life was one of adventure, marked by extensive travels in regions that were largely unknown to Western audiences at the time. Sir Aurel Stein passed away on October 26, 1943, leaving an indelible mark on the fields of archaeology, history, and exploration.
