Dear colleagues and friends of SSYCDS, Hope you are doing well! Please join me in welcoming a new member to the Song Yuan listserv, Jiangnan Li. Below please find his self introduction. Welcome, Mr. Li! My name is Jiangnan Li, a Ph.D. candidate in the EALC Program at Arizona State University. I am currently working with Professors Hoyt Tillman and Stephen Bokenkamp. Before my education in the U.S., I studied the Song dynasty history with Professors Li Huarui 李華瑞, Wang Huayu 王化雨, and Wei Huaxian 魏華仙 for my M.A. and B.A. My research interests primarily lie in cultural and intellectual history in middle and late imperial China, with a particular focus on the relationships between imperial rulership and cultural components at the court. My dissertation will explore the interactions and negotiations between imperial power and the Three Teachings of Confucianism, Buddhism, and Daoism in the Song dynasty. Therein, I will try to present several discourses between the ruler and the Three Teachings that enable us to examine the political, intellectual, and religious tensions between those different forces. By probing into these important power-cultural dynamics at the Song court, my research hopes to complicate scholars' understanding of the Confucian revival during the Song and reveal the behavioral patterns of imperial rulership and the Three Teachings. Sincerely, Ya Zuo Secretary, Society for Song, Yuan, and Conquest Dynasties Studies
