Delighted to announce that I will be co-convening a new Oxford seminar series this term on the Pre-Modern History of East Asia, alongside Chui-Joe Tham. Please help spread the word and hoping to meet lots of new people interested in the diverse world of pre-modern east Asia!
Do you recognise the world famous monument in this photo? It's Stonehenge! This photo most likely records some of the works & excavations headed by Prof William Gowland FSA, when he was appointed by the Society to undertake archaeological supervision for planned restorations.
Delighted to meet Sir Roly Keating to celebrate the renewed partnership between @britishlibrary and the National Library of China in the 30th year of the International Dunhuang Programme @idp_uk Can't wait for the exhibition on the Silk Roads at Dunhuang in London in September!
@RAS_Soc Major-General Richard Drapes Ardagh lived at that address in the 1880s, according to the @RGS_IBG proceedings. He taught Burmese at Oxford, Cambridge and KCL. See kingscollections.org/victorianlives…
@RAS_Soc The City Directories seem to give a good impression of who was living at that address, but I don't recognize any obvious candidates, unless Col. Augustus Thurburn (there ca. 1865) who had served extensively in India.
