K istorii pervogo angliis˘kogo posol’stva v Butan i Tibet 1774–1775: Dzhordzh Bogl i ego “Memorandumy”/On the History of the First British Embassy in Bhutan and Tibet (1774–1775): George Bogle and His Memorandums. By Alexei V. Postnikov.

The work of George Bogle (1746–1781), the British East India Company’s envoy to Bhutan and Tibet, is not unknown to the scientific community. He was the first educated European who managed to establish a close relationship with Tibet’s ruling elite. Bogle’s diary and travel notes were published in 1876 by Clement R. Markham (Narratives of the Mission of George Bogle). Even today, the interest in the person and works of George Bogle has not waned. More recently, several important books have been published about his work: Alastair Lamb, Bhutan and Tibet: The Travels of George Bogle and Alexander Hamilton, 1774–1777 (Roxford Books, 2002) ; Gordon T. Stewart, Journeys to Empire: Enlightenment, Imperialism, and the British Encounter with Tibet, 1774–1904 (Cambridge University Press, 2002) ; and Kate Teltscher, The High Road to China: George Bogle, the Panchen Lama and the First British Expedition to Tibet (Bloomsbury, 2006)
