DESCRIPTION:Read event summary here \nSpeaker:  Geremie R. Barmé\, Editor\, China Heritage \nFrom late 2018\, China has marked a series of major anniversaries and commemorations.  A century of political\, cultural and social upheaval has been brought into sharp focus by tumultuous contemporary events. Today\, the past is living in to the present in ways that are significant not only for the ‘Chinese commonwealth’\, but also for China in the World. This talk will focus on two cities — Beijing and Hong Kong — and on Geremie Barmé’s work for China Heritage (https://chinaheritage.net) concerning the case of Xu Zhangrun at Tsinghua University and the uprising in Hong Kong. \nGeremie R.

During his academic career he founded and edited China Heritage Quarterly (2005-2012) and The China Story (2012-2016)\, as well as editing East Asian History (from 1990 to 2007). His An Artistic Exile: the life of Feng Zikai (1898-1975) was awarded the Joseph Levenson Prize in 2004.
