Synopsis

The present volume has evolved as an effort to translate a collection of articles originally published in Slovenian in 2019 under the title Procesi in odnosi v Vzhodni Aziji – zbornik EARL [Processes and Relations in East Asia – the EARL Collected Papers]. These articles, initially part of a celebration of the 100th anniversary of the University of Ljubljana, aimed to acquaint the Slovenian public with the intricacies of the field of Asian studies and to create an interdisciplinary volume within our academic space, where such work had been lacking until then. Covering a range of topics from ideational commonalities, cultural heritage, language, and scripts to internal challenges and international relations, the EARL (East Asia Resource Library) Collected Papers reflected the collaborative research efforts of two central institutions at the University of Ljubljana: the Faculty of Arts and the Faculty of Social Sciences.
