Printed books, maps and manuscripts from the Bodleian's Chinese special collections.
This project, begun in 2014, represents an ongoing effort to make available parts of the Bodleian’s extensive pre-modern Chinese holdings. To date, this project has digitized over 1,000 items, including editions of popular songs from the Southern Min region; Daoist manuscripts of the Yao people in northern Thailand; Democracy Wall publications, 1978-1980, and 19th century protestant missionary texts.
This project has been generously funded by Dr HD Chung and Chung Hon Dak Foundation.
