Kyoto Lectures

On the occasion of the Golden Jubilee celebrations of Matrushree Oriental College in Jillellamudi (Andhra Pradesh) on December 9, 2021, S.L.P. Anjaneya Sarma, who worked there for 16 years from the inception of the college until he joined the EFEO in 1987, gave a keynote address and was then honoured by the management and his former students.

The EFEO is celebrating its 120th anniversary this year, which was celebrated at the Académie des Inscriptions et Belles-Lettres on December the 3rd in the form of a symposium.
This meeting was an opportunity to review the history of the School, but also the current status of its projects.

To mark its 120th anniversary, the EFEO has put online a webdocumentary entitled "L'École française d'Extrême-Orient: 120 ans de recherches en Asie" [The French School of the Far East: 120 years of research in Asia], which aims to raise awareness of its history, its Centers, its researchers, and the richness of the holdings of its library and archives: prints, printed works, manuscripts, maps, blueprints, photographs, images, etc.
