Digital exhibition of rare Chinese books at Leipzig University Library

Philip Clart Discussion

Dear colleagues,

Please allow me to direct your attention to a digital exhibition at the Leipzig University Library: "China in Leipzig: Einblicke in die chinesische Schriftkultur"

https://ausstellungen.deutsche-digitale-bibliothek.de/china-in-leipzig/

It consists of digital excerpts from an exhibition of rare Chinese books held by Leipzig University Library, which was supposed to accompany the 2021 EACS (European Association for Chinese Studies) meeting in Leipzig, but fell victim to pandemic restrictions. The full actual exhibition is now planned for 2022 or 2023.

A catalogue has already been published, in both English and German versions:
German:

English: https://www.univerlag-leipzig.de/catalog/bookstore/article/2106-Book_Culture_from_China_Traces_in_Leipzig

Best wishes,
