Features: The book is titled "Dunhuang · Ethnicity · Language," in addition to the articles discussing the aforementioned themes, it also includes several research papers related to the Five Clans Theory, Huichao's Biography, the Yupian Dictionary, typesetters, and more, totaling twenty articles. In summary, all the selected articles in this book are related to the three key themes of Dunhuang, ethnicity, and language. The publication dates range from the early 1980s to recent years, spanning many years. Some of the papers may have diminished academic value, but considering that such in-depth research remains scarce in related fields, these papers still hold certain value and are included in this collection. Most of the articles in this book were translated by Zhong Chong and Chen Jie, who were studying at the Kyoto University Graduate School. Among them, those translated by Zhong Chong are particularly numerous. Additionally, two articles borrowed from translations previously published in domestic Chinese magazines have been corrected for some obvious errors, and several improvements in terminology have been added. Here, we also express our deep gratitude to the translators for their hard work.
