This latest edition of The Journal has 300 pages and 19 articles ranging from the censorship of Lady Chatterley in Shanghai to a history of rugby football in the Far East, from British diplomatic diaries during the 1900 Boxer siege to aspects of Chinese architecture, past and present. You’ll have a chance to meet RAS Journal Editor, Richard de Grijs, and some authors, and to mingle over wine and nibbles from Red Kitchen Cabinet .

Members in good standing — including those who join on the night — will receive a Journal free; others can purchase one for RMB 70.

You’ll also learn more about our program for the coming year. If you’ve enjoyed our activities, and always meant to join the Royal Asiatic Society Beijing, this is the time! Individual membership for the year costs RMB 300. Upcoming events will focus on a diverse range of topics, from the party congress to comparing Chinese and Western music to researching American aviators in WWII China.

We  hope to see you September 26. So that we have accurate numbers for catering, kindly RSVP to communications.ras.bj@gmail.com by Sept. 23.
