Searching for Treasures in Foreign Lands: Searching, Publishing and Researching Ancient Documents and Cultural Relics of Ethnic Groups Lost Overseas

About This Novel

With the discovery of documents and cultural relics from Dunhuang, Turpan, and Heishui City, research on these large quantities of new materials is in the ascendant. Because the materials from Dunhuang and Heishui City were plundered by foreign expeditions when they were unearthed, precious ancient Chinese documents and cultural relics drifted to foreign lands. In order to let the Chinese people see these precious documents and materials, since the 1990s, Chinese academic circles and the publishing industry have joined hands to sort out and publish the Dunhuang Turpan documents and Xixia documents that were lost overseas. This book records the entire process of the author traveling across the ocean to collect and organize precious documents and cultural relics lost overseas in Dunhuang, the Western Regions, and Blackwater City at the British National Library, the National Library of France, and the Hermitage Museum in Russia.
