JOURNAL REVIEWS |
"The editors should be congratulated for having assembled a stellar cast of contributors. In many instances, the entries provide much more than basic bibliographical information...With the arrival of this book...there is reason for optimism that the pace of research on early medieval China will quicken. This is a significant contribution that testifies to the importance of collaborative research in the Humanities." ~Alan K. L. Chan, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, in Frontiers of Literary Studies in China, vol. 12, no. 1 (2018): 135-139. |
