Dear colleagues and friends,
Hope you are doing well there!
Please join me in welcoming a new member to the SSYCDS listserv, Guanrui
Gong. Below please find Guanrui's self introduction. Welcome to our
community!
My name is Guanrui, and I am a first-year PhD student at the Dept. of Asian
Languages and Cultures at UCLA, working with the wonderful Prof. Huijun
Mai. I graduated with a BA from Boston College and an MA from the
University of Colorado, Boulder. I am interested in exploring the
negotiations between humans and the environment in medieval Chinese
literature, particularly the Song period. Currently, a few of my projects
include water management commemoration/propaganda and food refuse and
human/animal waste.
Sincerely,
Ya Zuo
Secretary, Society for Song, Yuan, and Conquest Dynasties Studies
