SUNG YUAN Studies The Society of Song, Yuan, and Conquest Dynasty Studies appreciates the generous contributions of Prof. Dr. Helwig Schmidt-Glintzer, who provided us with a high-quality scan of volumes 16 and 17. Through his effort, the Society has been able to make electronic copy of the these volumes of the Bulletin of Sung-Yuan Studies Newsletter available in the public domain. Please Note: Because this newsletter was scanned as a series of graphics images of the pages, it is only minimally searchable. The file has been processed with OCR software, but the Chinese and Japanese characters in the texts have been converted to, well, gibberish. Bulletin of SUNG YUAN Studies 16 Cllarles A.

  • Literary, Subsidiary, and Foreign Rights Agents
    Literary, Subsidiary, and Foreign Rights Agents A Mini-Guide by John Kremer Copyright © 2011 by John Kremer All rights reserved. Open Horizons P. O. Box 2887 Taos NM 87571 575-751-3398 Fax: 575-751-3100 Email: [email protected] Web: http://www.bookmarket.com Introduction Below are the names and contact information for more than 1,450+ literary agents who sell rights for books. For additional lists, see the end of this report. The agents highlighted with a bigger indent are known to work with self-publishers or publishers in helping them to sell subsidiary, film, foreign, and reprint rights for books. All 325+ foreign literary agents (highlighted in bold green) listed here are known to work with one or more independent publishers or authors in selling foreign rights. Some of the major literary agencies are highlighted in bold red. To locate the 260 agents that deal with first-time novelists, look for the agents highlighted with bigger type. You can also locate them by searching for: “first novel” by using the search function in your web browser or word processing program. Unknown author Jennifer Weiner was turned down by 23 agents before finding one who thought a novel about a plus-size heroine would sell. Her book, Good in Bed, became a bestseller. The lesson? Don't take 23 agents word for it. Find the 24th that believes in you and your book. When querying agents, be selective. Don't send to everyone. Send to those that really look like they might be interested in what you have to offer.

  • Honours Thesis
    The Xixia Writing System Bachelor of Arts Honours Thesis Alan Downes 89253388 Supervisor: Professor Daniel Kane Macquarie University November 26, 2008 Abstract The Xixia were an independent state established during the Song dynasty within the borders of present-day China. They developed a script that rivals Chinese in its complexity. The methods that have been historically used to describe characters are presented. A new method called the recursive radical method is then developed to exactly describe the structure of a Xixia character based on its components. This is then further developed into a transliteration method for the characters. Dictionaries are built up based on this transliteration method. A categorical dictionary for the Xixia characters is also presented. The grammar of the Xixia language is briefly outlined before finishing with an overview of the Xixia research literature.

Reassessing Printed Buddhist Frontispieces from Xi Xia Shih-shan Susan Huang Rice University Abstract: This study uses printed Buddhist frontispieces to reevaluate Xi Xia visual culture and its connections to neighboring cultures—the Song, the Khitan Liao, and the Jurchen Jin. Many frontispieces, produced in large numbers with Chinese woodblock printing technology, have been excavated at Khara Khoto, Inner Mongolia, and sites in Gansu and Ningxia. Applying a visual approach, the author pays special attention to the uses of modular motifs across cultures.

I first became interested in Tangut texts and the Tangut script while working for the International Dunhuang Project (IDP) at the British Library, where I had a chance to view some original manuscripts while they were being digitised. Susan Whitfield, the head of the project, has been continuously encouraging of my interest in the languages and scripts of Central Asia and urged me to study them.
