Conference Announcement: "Rethinking Time in Modern China: A Sinological Intervention"

Conference Announcement: "Rethinking Time in Modern China: A Sinological Intervention," Tel Aviv University, 14-16 May 2017. The conference is open to the public.

Theme: Our purpose in the conference is to examine ways in which Sinology can shed new light on Modern Chinese history. We hope to do so by considering specific case studies, chosen by the participants, that focus either on specific events/issues from the modern era (past century or so), examined through the Sinological prism (of classical language, longer perspective, relevance of historical legacy etc.); or studies that focus on events/issues from earlier periods, yet used as a prism for new understanding of modern China.
