Program in Medieval Studies
Join us for the first book club meeting of the spring semester on February 15th at 6pm. We will be reading The King’s Road: Diplomacy and the Remaking of the Silk Road (2023) by Princeton’s very own Xin Wen. The book sheds new light on trans-Eurasian diplomatic networks on the Silk Road using the vast resource of documents from the Dunhuang ‘library cave’. Xin Wen is Assistant Professor of East Asian Studies and History.
Registration is now closed. Please email Medieval Studies Program Manager, Anna D’Elia at anna.delia@princeton.edu, with any questions.
The Medieval Studies book club is an opportunity to connect with graduate students from around the university who are interested in the medieval world. Anyone with an interest in the material and a commitment to participating in our informal discussion are invited to join!
This meeting is for graduate students only.
