The Early China Seminar Series
The Early China Seminar was founded in 2002 as an inter-university forum for the study of early Chinese civilization from the Neolithic period to the end of the Han Dynasty (A.D. 220). The seminar offers a multidisciplinary space, bringing together scholars from all fields related to early China—history, archaeology, art history, literature and language, religion and philosophy – and aims at stimulating creative new insight and analysis based especially on recently discovered archaeological and textual materials. As a part of the Tang Center’s operations, the Early China Seminar is dedicated to promoting public interest in and understanding of the cultural and historical legacy of Early China.
The Early China Seminar lecture Series, covering a wide range of topics of broad interests, is open to students, scholars, and the registered public members of the Tang Center.
Current Co-Chairs: Professors Ethan Harkness (NYU) & Glenda Chao (Ursinus College )
