The EBHR editorial collectiveIs pleased to announce the publication of the first online issue of this journal which is celebrating its thirtieth anniversary ! You will find our usual columns, with an article by Pascal Bouchery on the terminology of the Adi kinship of Arunachal Pradesh and an article by Gérard Toffin on the religious worlds of newar guthis associations. Tanka Subba launches our column relecture which aims to comment on an article considered important in her field of study, in this case that of the movements of populations from Nepal to northeast India. Samuele Poletti, meanwhile, inaugurates the section photographic essay, developing a reflection on the conversion to Christianity in northwestern Nepal. Finally, this issue affirms our desire to inform on the current state of research thanks to the four abstracts of recently defended theses and the eight book reviews, one of which will lead to a response from the author in the next issue, instilling a welcome debate.

UNKNOWN ASPECTS OF ALEXANDRA DAVID-NEELIf the traveler and explorer is well known, other aspects of her life are much less known.
In the course of lectures we will address two of them.
Wednesday, September 22 at 4pm:
She was a singer and wrote a book The Great Art about the life of a singer, the first part of which is obviously her experience.
She also wrote the libretto for an opera Lidia that her lover at the time Jean Hautstont set to music and that she sang. Samuel Thévoz , Doctor of Letters from the University of Lausanne, associate researcher at the University Sorbonne nouvelle - Paris 3 / UMR 7172 THALIM, who participated in the edition of Grand Art will comment on her career.
Frédérique Varda and Jean Goyetche recorded an excerpt from Lidia, which has never been edited.
This excerpt will be screened in the presence of the two singers who will comment on it.
Jeanne Mascolo de Filippis who wrote a book Alexandra David-Néel - 100 years of adventure and made a film about her will participate in this conference.
