We are excited to announce a showing of Secret Love in Peach Blossom Land (暗戀桃花源 An Lian Tao Hua Yuan) at the State Theatre on Wednesday, March 27. We will be joined by the film's legendary director, Stan Lai, who will be available for Q&A after the film.
Asia Library and the Lierberthal-Rogel Center for Chinese Studies are collaborating on a new film series.
Asia Library has had a wonderful year already: on January 3 we received a donation of some 200 Kodachrome slides from Margaret Condon Taylor (Ph.D. psychology, 1983).
This summer Asia Library hosted a workshop and made plans to celebrate its 70-year history.
On Friday, April 6, 2018, Asia Library, the University Library, and the Center of Japanese Studies presented a symposium, "Sacred Scriptures in a Secular Society: Hand-Copying Buddhist Texts in Japan."
Charles Chang is the next guest speaker in our Deep Dive into Digital and Data Methods for Chinese Studies series. He will introduce a computational method that overcomes the barriers of absent official urban statistics in studying modern China. He will also offer a workshop on geocoding Chinese addresses.
An Asia Library librarian is a member of an exciting Humanities Collaboratory project, Hyecho's Journey.
