Twitter Book Threads

[forestofglory]

I've been doing thread about the various academic Chinese history and culture books I've been reading on Twitter as I read them. I generally share little tidbits of the book that I think other people will find interesting and don't do a lot of analysis. I thought it might be nice to collect some of these where other people could find them. (As opposed to my Twitter bookmarks). So here are all the ones I could find easily:

Passions of the Cut Sleeve: The Male Homosexual Tradition in China by Bret Hinsch

The Rise of West Lake: A Cultural Landmark in the Song Dynasty by Xiaolin Duan

Culinary Nostalgia: regional food culture and the urban experience in Shanghai by Mark Swislocki

The Impact of Buddhism on Chinese Material Culture by John Kieschnick.

The City of Blue and White: Chinese Porcelain and the Early Modern World by Anne Gerritsen

Thanks for sharing these here. The parts you shared from the Cut Sleeve and Culinary Nostalgia books were interesting, and I may browse through some of the others later.
