Restored Jade Gate at Yumen Pass in 2012 Living with the Past The following oral history interview was undertaken by the writer Sang Ye in early 2006 as part of the China Heritage Project's collective contribution to the book The Great Wall of China, edited by Claire Roberts and Geremie R. Barmé, produced by Powerhouse Publishing, Sydney, in association with the China Heritage Project. The book, which contains the following interview, was launched on 27 September 2006 at the opening of The Great Wall of China exhibition at the Powerhouse Museum. (See China Heritage Quarterly, No. 6) An Interview with Cao Hai by Sang Ye, Translated by Geremie R Barmé Cao Hai was the 52-year-old former head of the Jade Pass cultural relics protection office at the remains of the Jade Pass, which is under the jurisdiction of Dunhuang in Gansu province, west China. *** 1 The Jade Gate in 2006 before Restoration During the reign of Liu Che, Emperor Wu (140–87 BCE) of the Western Han dynasty (also known as Han Wudi), attempts to mollify the aggressive Xiongnu tribes to the north of Han territory were abandoned in favor of more robust defenses and war. The walls built during the Qin dynasty were enlarged and extended. The westernmost point of these long walls was at Jade Pass, or Yumen Guan, or Yumenguan, in what is today Gansu province. The Jade Pass, built some 1500 years before the Ming walls, stands, a solitary sentinel, near the ancient oasis of Dunhuang, a key station on the Silk Road, and bordering on modern-day Xinjiang. -

Central Asia in Xuanzang's Great Tang Dynasty Record of the Western
Recording the West: Central Asia in Xuanzang’s Great Tang Dynasty Record of the Western Regions Master’s Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master Arts in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Laura Pearce Graduate Program in East Asian Studies Ohio State University 2018 Committee: Morgan Liu (Advisor), Ying Zhang, and Mark Bender Copyrighted by Laura Elizabeth Pearce 2018 Abstract In 626 C.E., the Buddhist monk Xuanzang left the Tang Empire for India in a quest to deepen his religious understanding. In order to reach India, and in order to return, Xuanzang journeyed through areas in what is now called Central Asia. After he came home to China in 645 C.E., his work included writing an account of the countries he had visited: The Great Tang Dynasty Record of the Western Regions (Da Tang Xi You Ji 大唐西域記). The book is not a narrative travelogue, but rather presented as a collection of facts about the various countries he visited. Nevertheless, the Record is full of moral judgments, both stated and implied. Xuanzang’s judgment was frequently connected both to his Buddhist beliefs and a conviction that China represented the pinnacle of culture and good governance. Xuanzang’s portrayal of Central Asia at a crucial time when the Tang Empire was expanding westward is both inclusive and marginalizing, shaped by the overall framing of Central Asia in the Record and by the selection of local legends from individual nations. The tension in the Record between Buddhist concerns and secular political ones, and between an inclusive worldview and one centered on certain locations, creates an approach to Central Asia unlike that of many similar sources. -
