Features: The book is titled Dunhuang·Ethnicity·Language. In addition to the articles that elaborate on the aforementioned themes, it includes several studies related to the Five Clans Theory, Huichao's Biography, the Yupian, typesetters, and more, totaling twenty articles. In summary, all the selected articles are related to the three key themes of Dunhuang, ethnicity, and language. The publication dates range from the early 1980s to recent years, spanning a long period. Some of the papers may have diminished academic value, but considering that such in-depth research remains scarce in related fields, these articles still hold certain value and are included in this publication. 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 translated drafts that were previously published in Chinese domestic magazines. During this collection, some obvious errors in these translations were corrected, and additional terminology was added. Here, we also express deep gratitude to the translators for their hard work.
