Professor Martin Kern - The Shijing in the Warring States: Evidence from Newly Discovered Manuscripts, CUHK
In this week's episode, we will talk about the presence of Shijing poetry during the Warring States. A substantial number of Warring States and Western Han texts related to the Shijing have come to light in recent years, including philosophical treatises containing Shijing quotations, Shijing poems in historical anecdotes, and several partial or even full versions of the anthology itself. Professor Martin Kern will help us to explore how it was transmitted, how it was used and understood, and how its different interpretations shaped the written text in particular ways. He was invited by the New Asia College and the Department of Chinese Language and Literature of CUHK and Hong Kong Public Libraries to give a talk entitled “The Shijing in the Warring States: Evidence from Newly Discovered Manuscripts.”

Professor Martin Kern - The Voice of the Historian in Early China, CUHK - Part. 2
Presenter：Carol Mang
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”.
