Professor Martin Kern - Rethinking Authorship in Early China, CUHK
In this week's episode, we will talk about authorship in early China. In pre-imperial China, individual authorship was not valued as much as the collective roles involved in the creation and interpretation of texts. Professor Martin Kern from Princeton University will shed light on the importance of text reception, performance and transformation and give us a new framework to think about textual agency and authority. Professor Kern was invited by the New Asia College and Department of Chinese Language and Literature of CUHK to give a talk entitled Rethinking Authorship in Early China, and we'll hear part of it this week.

Professor Martin Kern - The Voice of the Historian in Early China, CUHK - Part. 2
In this week's episode, we will talk about ancient Chinese historiography. Early Chinese historical writing differs from ancient Greek and Roman historiography in that it does not emphasise the voice of the historian. Instead, it prefers to keep the historian silent and invisible. Professor Martin Kern from Princeton University explores the features of various historian's statements and how they showcase the historian as an exemplary reader of history and its sources. He was invited by the New Asia College and Department of History of CUHK to give a talk entitled “The Voice of the Historian in Early China”.
