| Description | Sambuugiin Zandavaa (1896–1961) occupies an important place among the well-educated members of the noble clan of Altai Uriankhai Right Chief Banner. In 1930, he moved from Bulgan in Mongolia to his birthplace Chingel, which was under the jurisdiction of the Republic of China, where he lived until the outbreak of the Cultural Revolution. Not only did Zandavaa know many types of heroic epics and read Buddhist scriptures in Literary Oirat, but he also wrote a short story in Literary Oirat called A Short Story About Women, which has not been preserved to this day. S. Zandavaa represents a symbiosis of oral and written literatures among the Oirat nobility of the first half of the 20th century. |
