An International Workshop on Sinophone Humanities in Southeast Asia
Harvard University, April 11, 2019

On April 11, 2019, Professor David Wang (Harvard University) and Professor Ko Chia-cian (National Taiwan University) organized an international workshop titled “Sinophone Humanities in Southeast Asia” at Harvard University that featured both junior and senior scholars from Taiwan, Japan, and North America. Reflecting on recent developments in Sinophone studies through the lens of Southeast Asia, the workshop featured eight paper presentations across two panels titled “The Geopolitics of Southeast Asian Space, Memory and History” and “Southeast Asia Trans-regional Connections and Consciousness.” The event concluded with a roundtable discussion featuring Sinophone writer Chang Kuei-hsing and was chaired by Professor Mei Chia-ling (National Taiwan University). During the roundtable discussion, Chang Kuei-hsing spoke about the history of Borneo, his experiences of growing up in Sarawak, and how these elements shaped his latest novel, Wild Boars Crossing the River. Both paper panels and the roundtable sparked robust discussion among the workshop participants and attendees.
