MING QING STUDIES is a yearly publication, both on line and in printed
form, which continues the positive experience of Ming Qing Yanjiu. Thanks
to the cooperation of several scholars settled in Italy and abroad, it
intends to widen the debate on the historical and cultural issues of late
imperial China as well as pre-modern and modern East Asia. Although this
publication focuses on late imperial China, its scope is broadened to the
whole East Asia area, with its new cultural and anthropological features
which are manifested in this fundamental period of transition from local
to global history.
