This year, we invited Professor Wen-hsin Yeh, Richard H. and Laurie C. Morrison Chair Professor in History, Department of History, University of California at Berkeley to deliver two public lectures in Hong Kong in November 2015.
The first lecture was held at 3:00 pm at Hong Kong Museum of History in Tsim Sha Tsui on 22 November 2015. The topic of the lecture was "Shipwrecked: the Rover and Late Qing Taiwan". The second Lecture, "Wartime Writing: A Practice of Reading" was held in the Choi Yiu Hall at the Chinese University of Hong Kong on 23 November 2015.
The two lectures were very well received by academics and the public alike. The Q & A sessions of the Lectures were particularly inspiring and interactive.
