Tian Xiaofei, Professor of Chinese Literature at Harvard University, is to carry out research at the Institute of Sinology and East Asian Studies. One focus of Tian Xiaofei's work is the poetry of the mid-Imperial period. © privat Tian Xiaofei, Professor of Chinese Literature at Harvard University in Cambridge, USA, has received a Humboldt research award from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation. This coveted award will enable her to spend time doing research at the Institute of Sinology and East Asian Studies at the University of Münster. Tian Xiaofei opted to go to this Institute because it is one of the few in Germany which has a research focus on the literature of mid-Imperial China (approximately 3rd to 10th centuries CE). For this reason, it has an exceptionally well-equipped library for this area of research. Tian Xiaofei's hosts are the Institute's Director, Prof. Kerstin Storm, and her predecessor, Prof. Reinhard Emmerich, who now holds a senior professorship.
