International Conference on Chinese Bamboo and Silk Manuscripts 2024: Bamboo Slips, Writings on Silk, Classical Texts, and Early China History
In 2024, the “International Conference on Chinese Bamboo and Silk Manuscripts” will be co-hosted by the Jao Tsung-I Academy of Sinology at Hong Kong Baptist University, the Center of Bamboo and Silk Manuscripts at Wuhan University, and the Creel Center for Chinese Paleography at the University of Chicago.
The theme of this Conference is “Bamboo Slips, Writings on Silk, Classical Texts, and Early Chinese History”, and it will consist of one study session on new materials and several special presentation sessions. The conference aims to bring together over forty experts in the field—researchers, historians, and gifted young scholars from both China and overseas—to engage with the most recent discoveries, textual research, and text compilation pertaining to bamboo slips of the Warring States period and the Qin and Han dynasties. There will also be a discussion on aspects of history, thought, geography, and mathematics as represented in the slips.
