INDEX Page for all Chinese writings
Understanding how to navigate in a complex site like our library will be best facilitated by an organizational scheme. I propose to keep Chinese writings in a unified separate section. This is it.
We are not a Russian oriented site, although that is how it has thus far unfolded. I am not a researcher nor an author, but a translator and an editor. So far, all these Russian books and articles I have translated. Although I am not opposed to upload some English Articles that are relevant to our thesis. From our ABOUT Page, that thesis is to have a better understanding of those whom (we are told) are our adversaries. (or enemies)
Also with our overview of Ancient and Medieval European and Asian history, we can develop a better understanding of the Western Heritage, and see if we can recognize themes from the past that (dis)color our current western outlook.

I can also translate Chinese. The first few entries are already in English, but they're in the creative commons usage, so I’ll upload them. See what you think.
Xiang Biao is one of my favorite books.

I apologize for the 10-day delay in posting. But preparing this book was so impactful that it inspired the launch of another project that some of us had been talking about last month, (and thinking about for years).

Dongping Han 2008. "The Unknown Cultural Revolution": Life and Change in a Chinese Village, 1966 - 1976. Book Review by Munir Ghazanfar.
I had read another two books by Mobo Gao, a study of his village in Jiangxi China. He now teaches in Adelaide University, and has written more on the GLF (Great Leap) and Cultural Revolution and life in his village. I thought I had uploaded something on him, but NOT.
Gao was born in 1952, grew up there and later obtained a research grant to study his home town. I will upload his first book right here, since I did not excerpt any of its contents before.
Please download it and see if there is anything interesting for you.
Everything is not pretty about ancient history, neither in China, Asia or Europe.
