East Asia Seminar Series at the University of Cambridge - Michaelmas Term 2020
Repost from H-Japan
Dear all,
Please find below the list of speakers for the upcoming East Asia Seminar Series at the University of Cambridge. We have an exciting line-up covering a range of topics, including a rakugo performance live-streamed from Japan.
The talks will be given online via Zoom, and registration will be required for attendance. Registration links will be made available on the event pages for individual talks on the 'What's on' section of the Faculty of Asian and Middle Eastern Studies website.
Talks this term (apart from the rakugo performance) will start at 18:00. Please open the Zoom link 10 minutes beforehand.
We look forward to seeing you there!
