Teaching Fellow, Department of Chinese Culture at Hong Kong Polytechnic University
Hsueh-Yi Lin is a historian of late imperial China. She obtained her PhD from Princeton University, with a focus on the intellectual and sociocultural history of China from the sixteenth to the eighteenth centuries. In teaching and research, she is concerned with the interplays between ideas, people, and institutions, and in particular, the invention and reinvention of cultural traditions through this process. Much of her recent work has drawn on archival research to address changes that have long term impact on Chinese values and identity, such as the patterns of Buddho-Confucian interactions and the expansion of elite networks.
