The widely accepted and commonly used concept of "Central Eurasia" was first proposed by him in Paris in 1940. In Sinor's view, Central Eurasia is a unique cultural region that is distinctly different from the continental periphery. As a scholar with a legendary career, in the circle of his disciples and friends, Sinor was known as "the Great Khan." Presented here to the readers are some of Denis Sinor's papers, which are significant achievements in the study of the historical and cultural traditions of the peoples of Inner Asia. In other words, if one wishes to gain an in-depth understanding of the history and culture of Inner Asia, Sinor's works are indispensable. This book is also the first Chinese translation of Sinor's works, and the bibliography of Sinor's publications appended at the end of the book is also presented to the world readers for the first time.
