From July 30-August 10, Bill Baxter co-ran an intensive workshop on Old Chinese reconstruction along with Professor CHEN Jian of Fudan University, Shanghai. The workshop was held at Leiden University, the Netherlands and was sponsored by the Research School for Asian, African, and Amerindian Studies (CNWS) and the Leiden University’s Faculty of Arts. The workshop focused especially on interpreting the
script of texts of the Warring States period (5th-3rd centuries BCE) recently excavated at
archeological sites in China.
