POSTPONED - Global Reception of the Classic Zhuangzi: Song to Ming
The Zhuangzi’s influence on (Chinese) literature is immense. From Jia Yi 賈誼 (200-169 BCE) and Sima Qian 司馬遷 (c. 145-86 BCE) onward, there was almost nobody of the great writers of the past who was not affected by it. In this second workshop, we explore the Zhuangzi’s reception history during the Song 宋 (960-1279), Yuan 元 (1279-1368), and Ming 明 (1368-1644) dynasties.
This event has been postponed. More information will be forthcoming.
