About
Welcome to my channel. My name is Imre Galambos and I am a sinologist doing research on medieval manuscripts from sites along the Silk Road. I used to be Professor of Chinese at Cambridge but recently I moved to the beautiful city of Hangzhou (China) and now I teach at Zhejiang University. This channel focuses on Chinese language, characters and manuscripts, as well as on how to write and publish in academia, and how to pursue research in general. I am trying to distill my own experience and to present it in a way that is helpful for those just starting out on their academic career.
NB. There is, of course, no such thing as "the Chinese alphabet", because the Chinese use signs (i.e. characters) to write. This is a writing system that is entirely different from the phonetic scripts of other cultures.
