Tombs and Transnational History in Greater China: A Collection of Case Studies (by Gotelind Müller)

Title: Tombs and Transnational History in Greater China: A Collection of Case Studies
Author: Gotelind Müller
Published by: LIT Verlag, 2022

This collection of case studies is concerned with tombs that testify to transnational history. Special attention is given to tombs of Westerners and Russians still extant in Greater China, but also to those of some noted Chinese who were involved in transnational history during the 20th century. Tombs have a special potential to cast familiar things in a new light. They also provide the possibility to counter-check received narratives which might have been tailored along certain vested interests and circulated with specific target groups in mind.

Gotelind Müller is Professor of Chinese Studies at the University of Heidelberg.
