Dear All,

I would like to introduce Jeff Howard, who was a student of Hok-lam Chan many years ago.  As he explains, at that time he was writing a dissertation on Zheng Qiao but dropped out of academia for around 32 years. He has now retired and is interested in continuing his work on the Song.

He began his studies at the UofW with Jack Dull and was working on Han religion. (Howard, Jeffrey A. “Concepts of Comprehensiveness and Historical Change in the Huai-nan-tzu.” In Henry Rosemont, Explorations in Early Chinese Cosmology, Journal of the American Academy of Religion, 50.2 (1984):119-31). However he became interested in Chinese historiography and finally settled on the Song and Zheng Qiao.  His interest now is still Song historiography and also factionalism in the Northern Song.

He has a question that someone may be able to answer:  “I was able to buy volumes 2 through 20 of the Zhonghua edition Li Tao's Xu Zi zhi tong jian chang bian from Brian McKnight who I believe has retired. Do you know of a source for the remaining volumes?”

Yours truly,

Michael
