At the same time, it focuses on the context of academic exchanges between China and Japan in the early twentieth century, during the formative period of modern historical scholarship, to elucidate how the history of Song interactions with northern peoples was reinterpreted and reconstructed, and how it became an intellectual resource that contributed to the formation of national consciousness and nationalism in modern China.<\/p>\n<h5>Education and Academic Employment<\/h5>\n<p><strong>Education<\/strong><\/p>\n<table class=\"table table-striped table-chronology table-colored-tbhd\" style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; height: 115px;\" border=\"0\">\n<tbody>\n<tr style=\"height: 23px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 17.1004%; height: 23px;\">2026<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 82.8996%; height: 23px;\">Ph.D. History and East Asian Languages, Harvard University<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 23px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 17.1004%; height: 23px;\">2017<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 82.8996%; height: 23px;\">M.A. East Asian Studies, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr style=\"height: 23px;\">\n<td style=\"width: 17.1004%; height: 23px;\">2014<\/td>\n<td style=\"width: 82.8996%; height: 23px;\">B.A. Public Administration, Shanghai Jiao Tong University<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h5>Fields of Research Interests<\/h5>\n<p>Nationalism, Historical Narrative, Historiography, Intellectual History<\/p>\n<h5>Academic Publications<\/h5>\n<p>(Under preparation)<\/p>\n<h5>Other Interests<\/h5>\n<p>Sports, Travel, Games, Cats, Music<\/p>\n<h5>Affiliated Academic Organizations<\/h5>\n<p>Association for Asian Studies<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Name YANG, Yi Degree Ph.D. in History and East Asian Languages Status Assistant Professor Research Topic Histo [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":21503,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[97],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-21524","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-other-en"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/wias\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21524","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/wias\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/wias\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/wias\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/wias\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=21524"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/wias\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21524\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":21526,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/wias\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/21524\/revisions\/21526"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/wias\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/21503"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/wias\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=21524"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/wias\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=21524"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.waseda.jp\/inst\/wias\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=21524"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
