EVENT- Panel on Pax Mongolica, Columbia Univ., Oct. 16

Posted by: Gulnar Kendirbai <gk2020@columbia.edu>

OASIES presents

Pax Mongolica: Area Studies and the Mongol Legacy

The contemporary study of Mongol and post-Mongol space has been
divided among area studies institutes, university departments, and
cultural institutions. In addition, the inhabitants of post-Mongol
space have laid claim to a Mongol legacy in various ways. In our
discussion, we will consider what has been lost and what gained by
this fragmentation of Mongol studies and the Mongol legacy, as well as
emerging trends which will affect current and future students of the
Mongols.

Panelists Include:
Nicola di Cosmo (Institute for Advanced Study)
Ladan Akbarnia (Brooklyn Museum of Art)
Peter Golden (Rutgers University)

Moderated by Morris Rossabi (Columbia University)
