Since the early 18th century, the Buriyad-Mongols of the Transbaikal regions moved between two worlds : they were part of the Russian Empire and at the same time part of the greater Tibetan Buddhist world. As a consequence, Buriyad-Mongolian intellectual culture developed and thrived in a multi-lingual and multi-cultural setting, simultaneously drawing on Tibetan, Mongolian and Russian taxonomies. Based on a contextual analysis of select Buriyad-Mongolian historical chronicles, this paper tries to disentangle the “ mess of encounters ” (Peter van der Veer) that took place in the Buriyad regions and was reflected and shaped in their literary production. By exploring the multiple origins and composite nature of the Buriyad knowledge cultures and their impact on the emerging Buriyad political elites, the study aims to add to our knowledge of the role Non-European knowledge cultures played in the formation of a global modernity.
