Emory University, February 28–29, 2020
Principal Investigator(s): Maria Franca Sibau, Emory University; with Karin Myhre, University of Georgia; and Ihor Pidhainy, University of West Georgia
This two-day conference aimed to be the inaugural meeting of a regional forum to promote scholarly interaction and to support emerging scholars of late imperial China working in the Southeastern United States. By establishing these formal gatherings, the organizers hoped to provide intellectual benefits to the scholars and graduate students in the region, to enrich their own scholarship and teaching, and to engage broader interest in studies of the Ming.
