China's Southwestern Silk Road in World History By
China's Southwestern Silk Road in World History By: James A. Anderson James A.

Figures and/or pictures may be missing from this format of the document.*** As Robert Clark notes in The Global Imperative, "there is no doubt that trade networks like the Silk Road made possible the flourishing and spread of ancient civilizations to something approximating a global culture of the times."1 Goods, people and ideas all travelled along these long-distance routes spanning or circumventing the vast landmass of Eurasia. From earliest times, there have been three main routes, which connected China with the outside world.2 These were the overland routes that stretched across Eurasia from China to the Mediterranean, known collectively as the "Silk Road"; the Spice Trade shipping routes passing from the South China Sea into the Indian Ocean and beyond, known today as the "Maritime Silk Road"; and the "Southwestern Silk Road," a network of overland passages stretching from Central China through the mountainous areas of Sichuan, Guizhou and Yunnan provinces into the eastern states of South Asia. Although the first two routes are better known to students of World History, the Southwestern Silk Road has a long ancestry and also played an important role in knitting the world together.

The Silk Road: Image and Imagination
The Silk Road: Image and Imagination Bart Dessein Ordinary Member of the Royal Academy for Overseas Sciences of Belgium * Paper delivered at the extra-ordinary session in the Museum Katoen Natie, on December 6, 2013. **Professor Chinese taal en cultuur, vakgroep Talen en Culturen, Universiteit Gent Trefwoorden: zijderoute, handel, culturele uitwisseling, Marco Polo Samenvatting: De ‘zijderoute’ is een geheel van kortere regionale routes die vanaf het begin van de gangbare tijdrekening in gebruik waren als handelsroutes tussen Europa en Azië. Ook al waren zij in eerste instantie commerciële slagaders, toch hebben ook culturele gebruiken en objecten, religies en levensbeschouwingen zich over deze handelsroutes verspreid. In wat volgt wordt het ontstaan van deze routes besproken, wordt een korte schets gegeven van de belangrijkste handelsproducten en religies die over deze routes verspreid werden, en wordt ingegaan op de aantrekkingskracht die deze routes en het Verre Oosten dankzij de handelsgoederen en culturele artefacten op Europa hebben gehad. In een afzonderlijk luik wordt de problematiek rond het reisverhaal van Marco Polo naar Oost-Azië besproken. Mots-clés: routes de soie, commerce, échanges culturels, Marco Polo Résumé: Les ‘routes de soie’ sont un ensemble de routes regionales que ont lié l’Est et l’Ouest à partir du début de l’ère commune. Outre faciliter les rapports commerciaux, ces routes ont aussi servi comme route de passage pour les échanges culturels, philosophiques et religieus. Cet article discute l’origine des routes, les plus importantes marchandises et objets cultuels, ainsi que les religions que ont traversé les routes. L’article décrit aussi l’attraction que les routes et l’Extrême-Orient ont eu vis-à-vis l’Europe.

The Silk Road and Trans-Eurasian Exchange
The Road That Never Was: The Silk Road and Trans- Eurasian Exchange Khodadad Rezakhani he Silk Road, or Silk Route, is a name used today to refer to a supposed trade route of ancient Eurasia, its use bringing different images to mind. These are often of camel caravans on dusty roads, forbidding deserts, and exotic towns and “oases.” The con- cept as a whole tends to ignore realities such as geography and ecology, as well as political units, facts that become lost among the more potent romantic notions. While itineraries are presented at some length, actual places are forgotten, and it is supposed that a conventional “beginning” in China and a vague “destination” somewhere along the Mediterranean are enough. On the way, places such as Transoxiana, the Pamirs, Iran, and indeed the whole of the Near East are simply brushed aside and not much discussed. The Silk Road has then be- come a grand narrative that serves mostly to obscure important details and sometimes even more. As one modern historian similarly opposed to the idea of the Silk Road has suggested, “‘The Silk road’ now has become both band wagon and gravy train, with an endless stream of books, journals, conferences and international exhibitions devoted to it, reaching virtual mania proportions that is almost unstoppable.” 1 This is why I am suggesting not only that the concept of a continuous, purpose- driven road or even “routes” is counterproductive in the study of world history but also that it has no basis in historical reality or records. Doing away with the whole concept of the “Silk Road” of might do us, at least as historians, a world of good and actually let us study what in reality Studies was going on in the region.

Introduction
Introduction A warm welcome to the 16th Annual Harvard East Asia Society (HEAS) Conference. Ever since its inception, the HEAS Conference has provided an interdisciplinary forum in which graduate students from all corners of the globe can exchange ideas and present their research in the field of East Asian Studies. This year, we have worked hard to design a conference program that pays special attention to the connections between East Asian regions and nations, across space and time; our title, ‘Asia Intertwined’, is a nod to the ever-expanding geographical and temporal focus of regional studies in 2013. After a competitive selection process in which we screened hundreds of abstracts, we chose papers that demonstrated original research, rigorous analysis, and pertinence to our theme. We welcome almost forty speakers to the conference this year. For some, the journey to CGIS was a five-minute walk from campus, while others have travelled many hours, across multiple time zones, to participate. We are thrilled to have convened such a diverse group of scholars from the United States and beyond, and urge all our participants to take advantage of the rich scholarly and social opportunities presented by the weekend. We are honoured to welcome our keynote speaker James Fallows, national correspondent at The Atlantic, author, and longtime China-hand. The committee is also delighted to present this year’s conference lecture, which will be given by Professor Mark C. Elliott of Harvard’s Department of East Asian Languages and Civilizations. We would like to take this opportunity to thank all the guests, faculty members and graduate students who have contributed their time, scholarship, and expertise to this year’s conference.

A Mathematic Expression of Art: Sino- Iranian and Uighur Textile Interactions and the Turfan Textile Collection in Berlin
134 A Mathematic Expression of Art A Mathematic Expression of Art: Sino- Iranian and Uighur Textile Interactions and the Turfan Textile Collection in Berlin Mariachiara Gasparini, Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg Introduction The two main roads around the Tarim Basin in Xinjiang province, China, are commonly referred to as the Northern and Southern Silk Road. Along them once thrived important cities and sacred places, where different artistic influences from various Central Asian cultures had gathered. The northern road, along which the city of Turfan is located, transversed one of the main cross-cultural regions between East and West, which can be defined as Sogdian-Turfanese. It reaches from the city of Samarkand in present Uzbekistan to the area of Dunhuang in Gansu province, China (figure 1).1 Indian, Iranian, Chinese, Turkic and Mongolian Tibetan populations, along with diasporas from small and big heterogeneous ethnic groups, which over the centuries had moved in many directions along the Silk Road network, were among those who created a style that, due to its multi-ethnical features, should be recognized as “Central Asian”. Nevertheless, this term has still not found its rightful place in the history of art. Instead, the style has been labeled as “Chinese”, or sometimes “Iranian”, or “Indian” depending on the scholarly discipline of the studies. However, in the Sogdian-Turfanese context, where languages and religions belonging to western, eastern, northern, and southern regions coalesced, the collaboration of local artisans who emerged from this cultural melting pot made a distinctly Central Asian style recognizable and different from those of the metropolitan and central areas of the great Chinese, Iranian or Indian empires.

Hellenes and Romans in Ancient China (240 BC – 1398 AD)
SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS Number 230 August, 2012 Hellenes and Romans in Ancient China (240 BC – 1398 AD) by Lucas Christopoulos Victor H. Mair, Editor Sino-Platonic Papers Department of East Asian Languages and Civilizations University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia, PA 19104-6305 USA [email protected] www.sino-platonic.org SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS FOUNDED 1986 Editor-in-Chief VICTOR H. MAIR Associate Editors PAULA ROBERTS MARK SWOFFORD ISSN 2157-9679 (print) 2157-9687 (online) SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS is an occasional series dedicated to making available to specialists and the interested public the results of research that, because of its unconventional or controversial nature, might otherwise go unpublished. The editor-in-chief actively encourages younger, not yet well established, scholars and independent authors to submit manuscripts for consideration. Contributions in any of the major scholarly languages of the world, including romanized modern standard Mandarin (MSM) and Japanese, are acceptable. In special circumstances, papers written in one of the Sinitic topolects (fangyan) may be considered for publication. Although the chief focus of Sino-Platonic Papers is on the intercultural relations of China with other peoples, challenging and creative studies on a wide variety of philological subjects will be entertained. This series is not the place for safe, sober, and stodgy presentations. Sino- Platonic Papers prefers lively work that, while taking reasonable risks to advance the field, capitalizes on brilliant new insights into the development of civilization. Submissions are regularly sent out to be refereed, and extensive editorial suggestions for revision may be offered. Sino-Platonic Papers emphasizes substance over form. We do, however, strongly recommend that prospective authors consult our style guidelines at www.sino-platonic.org/stylesheet.doc.

Paintings of Zhong Kui and Demons in the Late
Imagining the Supernatural Grotesque: Paintings of Zhong Kui and Demons in the Late Southern Song (1127-1279) and Yuan (1271-1368) Dynasties Chun-Yi Joyce Tsai Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2015 ©2015 Chun-Yi Joyce Tsai All rights reserved ABSTRACT Imagining the Supernatural Grotesque: Paintings of Zhong Kui and Demons in the Late Southern Song (1127-1279) and Yuan (1271-1368) Dynasties Chun-Yi Joyce Tsai This dissertation is the first focused study of images of demons and how they were created and received at the turn of the Southern Song and Yuan periods of China. During these periods, China was in a state of dynastic crisis and transition, and the presence of foreign invaders, the rise of popular culture, the development of popular religion, as well as the advancement of commerce and transportation provided new materials and incentives for painting the supernatural grotesque. Given how widely represented they are in a variety of domains that include politics, literature, theater, and ritual, the Demon Queller Zhong Kui and his demons are good case studies for the effects of new social developments on representations of the supernatural grotesque. Through a careful iconological analysis of three of the earliest extant handscroll paintings that depict the mythical exorcist Zhong Kui travelling with his demonic entourage, this dissertation traces the iconographic sources and uncovers the multivalent cultural significances behind the way grotesque supernatural beings were imagined. Most studies of paintings depicting Zhong Kui focus narrowly on issues of connoisseurship, concentrate on the painter’s intent, and prioritize political metaphors in the paintings.
