1996年、中国湖南省長沙市市街地中心部の建築現場で発見された古井中から、総計14万点にのぼる簡牘群(走馬楼呉簡)が出土。この簡牘群は、三世紀(三国呉初期)の長沙郡臨湘侯国に関わる行政文書であった。走馬楼呉簡の地方穀倉や庫に関する記録や簿を主な史料とし、三国呉初期の地方財政制度の構造の解明を試みる。

Abstract:
Translation has a long history in China. Down the centuries translators, interpreters, Buddhist monks, Jesuit priests, Protestant missionaries, writers, historians, linguists, and even ministers and emperors have all written about translation, and from an amazing array of perspectives. Such an exciting diversity of views, reflections and theoretical thinking about the art and business of translating is now brought together in a two-volume anthology.
The first volume covers a time-frame from roughly the 5th century BCE to the twelfth century CE. It deals with translation in the civil and government context, and with the monumental project of Buddhist sutra translation. The second volume spans the 13th century CE to the Revolution of 1911, which brought an end to feudal China. It deals with the transmission of Western learning to China - a translation venture that changed the epistemological horizon and even the mindset of Chinese people.
Comprising over 250 passages, most of which are translated into English for the first time here, the anthology is the first major source book to appear in English. It carries valuable primary material, allowing access into the minds of translators working in a time and space markedly different from ours, and in ways foreign or even inconceivable to us. The topics these writers discussed are familiar. But rather than a comfortable trip on well-trodden ground, the anthology invites us on an exciting journey of the imagination.

Abstract:
The thesis examines the emergence of geographical knowledge in Early and Early Medieval China, by focusing on the political, human and cultural aspects of the representation of space that is conveyed in texts written from the Han to the Tang dynasty. Focusing on Ancient “Central” China (Jingzhou 荊州, i.e. modern Hubei and Hunan), we analyze geographical treatises, ethnographical notes that describe non Chinese peoples (the Man 蠻) and an Early geographical monograph written in the 6th Century by Li Daoyuan 酈道元 (d. 527), the Shuijing zhu 水經注 (Water Classic Commentary). This approach sheds light on the evolution of technical knowledge, the regionalisation of China in Early Medieval times, on the imperial integration of non Chinese peoples, and on the constitution of a geography of memory.

Abstract:
In the year 57 C.E., the court of Later Han dynasty presented a gold seal to an emissary from somewhere in what is now Japan. The seal soon vanished from history, only to be unearthed in 1784 in Japan. In the subsequent two-plus centuries, nearly 400 books and articles (mostly by Japanese) have addressed every conceivable issue surrounding this small object of gold. Joshua Fogel places the conferment of the seal in inter-Asian diplomacy of the first century and then traces four waves of historical analysis that the seal has undergone since its discovery, as the standards of historical judgment have changed over these years and the investment in the seal’s meaning have changed accordingly.

Abstract:
The aim of the book is to report the recent research development of ancient glass and glazing technology and the historical–cultural exchange of the East and West along the Silk and Steppe Roads. The contents of this book are dedicated to promote the exchanges between researchers in both social and scientific fields.
The scope of this book includes the new archaeological findings of ancient glass and faience in the world, the relationship of glassmaking with glazing technology, the development and application of modern techniques used for the characterization of ancient glass and glaze, compound colorants/opacifiers among ancient glass, the early exchanges of culture and techniques used between China and elsewhere along the Silk and Steppe Roads, and so on.
