"This book is translated into English from the original ≪丝绸之路与东西文化交流≫ (荣新江著) (Sichou zhilu yu dongxi wenhua jiaoliu by Rong Xinjiang), published by Peking University Press in 2015."--T.p. verso
Summary: "This first and only English translation of Rong Xinjiang's The Silk Road and Cultural Exchanges Between East and West is a collection of 28 papers on the history of the Silk Road and the interactions among the peoples and cultures of East and Central Asia, including the so-called Western Regions in modern-day Xinjiang. Each paper is a masterly study that combines information obtained from historical records with excavated materials, such as manuscripts, inscriptions and artefacts. The new materials primarily come from north-western China, including sites in the regions of Dunhuang, Turfan, Kucha, and Khotan. The book contains a wealth of original insights into nearly every aspect of the complex history of this region"-- Provided by publisher
