Japanese for Sinologists

Angebote / Angebote:

Japanese for Sinologists is an essential resource brimming with useful information for the aspiring scholar of China who seeks to read Japanese. Most of the sample texts are from the writings of giants of a former generation, which means the book has the salutary effect of introducing the reader to these important scholars in their original language. It also serves as a guide to reference materials, both on paper and online."—Tobie Meyer-Fong, Professor of History, Johns Hopkins University, and editor of Late Imperial China "This volume fulfills a crucial need for advanced training in Chinese studies. Students and scholars alike will benefit not only from the practical guidance in reading Japanese scholarship, but also from the opportunity to familiarize (or reacquaint) themselves with the writings and ideas of seminal figures in Japanese Sinology."—Richard von Glahn, author of The Economic History of China from Antiquity to the Nineteenth Century "Japanese scholarship is essential for the study of Chinese history and culture. Sinologists will find this reading primer immensely helpful for acquiring the reading knowledge to gain access to such scholarship."—Wai-yee Li,  author of Women and National Trauma in Late Imperial Chinese Literature
