"Situating Li Zhi within . . . the late-Ming culture of “#feelings,” Lee . . . brings Li Zhi’s insights into conversation with contemporary philosophical debates about the role of feelings, an #ethics of authenticity, and the virtue of #desire."

* 武俠 martial knight-errant (fiction)

Yan Lianke's *Ode to Elegance*《风雅颂》(2008) is a #satire in the tradition of *Don Quixote,* *The Scholars* 儒林外史 & *The Travels of Lao Can" 老殘遊記.

Prof Yang Ke's obsession w/ his scholarship & w/ fallen women mocks #academia, officialdom & more.

"To a Western sensibility, the broad strokes of Yan’s #humor ... But then, part of the book’s attraction is that it doesn’t have a Western sensibility." @lieslkschil https://t.co/7RNpDvGoIg

@GBLee @univofstandrews Congratulations!

Can these courses fit into MA students' programs too?
